Opal got spayed

Yes, this was the day. I took her to Emancipet this morning and picked her up this afternoon. I tried to do it in January, but she got sick. The lady who brought her out said that she was so cute - and she is. They put a little green collar on her with this big tag, and I was telling her that the tag is as big as she is. Mentioned it to the wife and she agreed, but also pointed out that it covers up her "beauty mark." I call it her "Twinkie" cause it looks like that spot on a Twinkie that you can see the cream filling. I guess the collar is coming off because we don't want to not see her little white spot. Only white on her. She's kind of stumble-y from the meds she got, but she's all purrs and happy to be home.

I misspelled your title and I read 'Opal got payed'. When I read your discussion, I realized my mistake. :)

I guess since she keeps us entertained, she gets 'payed' in loving and food every day.

@Hannihar she's a typical, young cat, who has "things to do and places to go." Older cats are more inclined to laying about.

That was a week ago and she's back to her normal, terroristic self.

It's good to have a cat. Take good care of her.

I have more than one cat, but we've put a lot of work into raising her up, so she's pretty special.

Poor Opal, she is still a bit dizzy for the meds, but she is lovely.

She's full of spit and vinegar this morning. She's in one of those "don't hold me, I've got to run!" moods.

@LadyDuck this is pretty much how she is every morning. I'm glad to see her back to being more normal.

At least you know that Opal won't have any future surprises to give you @ElicBxn .

She's so tiny I'd be afraid of her getting pregnant. Four pounds is a tiny cat at nearly 8 months.

@ElicBxn Holy Crap! 4 pounds??? Bless her heart. Yeah, it could have been extremely dangerous for Opal had she have gotten pregnant.

I keep debating having Scar neutered to get some of the aggression out of him, but I just haven't really decided.

some breeds of cats and dog are more prone to cancer issue if you do not... I heard sometimes it takes their aggression out sometimes it does not... My male cats are so lazy usually aggression is not an issue.. :) Then again my females are good at keeping them in line...too.

It will help with that, I get the boys fixed because otherwise they smell worse.

@ElicBxn To a cat even play is serious warrior business. I know my hunting alpha cat is serious she broke a really thick oat twig sliding across the yard to get her prey.. she hunts daily.. she is outdoor feral.. ...i think she could bite a human finger off.. just remember to never use what you wear, fingers or toes... or they think that is ok.. but i noticed cats love to play with anything you can drag along the ground and lift fast...

She is sweet, but she will get rough when she plays. She made me bleed from a bite the other day, this getting old is getting, well, old...

I've seen them come out groggy and come out hyper, once in a while, they will be normal, but the silly ones are hyper.

Thanks, we were a bit worried since she is so small. Nine days short of being 8 months and she's only 4 pounds.

I bet she is very happy to be at home. She should lay around all day. Very pretty cat.

She's been laying on my desk, leaning on me. Not going to be real happy when I head off to bed soon.

I know, but since we've put so much work into her, we worry about her.
