Is this normal after spaying???? **** UPDATED ****
« on: August 24, 2008, 08:27:05 AM »
I know Mooks posted to say Annie had to go back to the vets after spaying but the vet said it was down to a bug, I've done a search and can't find my answer so any advice would be appreciated.

Indie was spayed on Friday and yesterday seemed to be better - couldn't stop her runnng around.   This morning, have gone into the kitchen to find diarhoeaa everywhere mixed with blood and a very subdued Indie resting in her bed.    Is diarrhoea normal after being spayed and also should I be worried about the blood - its only a small amount  :huh:   Haven't seen that anyone else has posted about this. 

I know I'm a worrier so please forgive me if you think I'm worrying over nothing. 

Doesn't seem to be anyone about at the moment, will log off now and come back in an hour.

Honey certainly didn't have any runny tummy after her spay.... it does sound rather like she has picked up a bug to me...  :-\ 
What has she been eating?? Might anything have upset her tummy?
Is she drinking, or does she seem dehydrated??

If you're at all worried, I'd contact your vet...

My 2 girls never suffered anything like this either. I'd ring your vet for advice.

neither of mine two girls who both been spayed, had had this after a spay, could be a bug she's picked up.
i would phone vets for advise.

Thanks, I'd rung the vets after Karma's post.   He said she shouldn't have blood in the diarrhoea especially as the diarrhoea was virtually black, asked me to check her gums and told him they were really pale and he wants to see her now.   Am meeting him at the surgery in half hour.   Thought she was recovering so well yesterday  :'(   Will let you know how we get on.

I hope she's ok after seeing the vet.  She sounds a little anaemic (sp?) if her gums are pale, which might be to do with the shock of the op perhaps?

Do let us know how she is when you get back from the vets.

Sending Indie (and you) nice thoughts  :luv:

 :shades: Oh dear it's definitely not normal, I'm glad to hear you are seeing the vet today ! I'd be worried about the diarrhoea being black in case she has some internal bleeding. :-\ Hope it's nothing too serious though  :-*
