Claire is not going to have a very good day tomorrow

Tweet

She is 1 year old now and is finally getting spayed. I wanted to get it done over the Christmas break but the low-cost clinic was closed. Then my former neighbor told me that they have like a 2 month waiting list the week before spring break. She has started meowing again today so I think she is going into her 2nd heat. I'm not worried about her getting knocked up b/c the 2 male cats here are neutered (and I'd love to see Charlie try! ) but I don't want to deal with the meowing or her increased risk of cancer. I just made the call and they have an appointment for tomorrow. No food after 10pm but water is fine. I have to drop her off at 8am and then pick her up the following morning. They keep them overnight. Not sure why as the regular vets I've used over the years have never done that. I hope at least someone stays overnight with them. Not sure what the price will be. When I had Adso neutered during COVID it was like $83 plus a bit more for vaccinations. Females are always more expensive but you've gotta do what you've gotta do. My poor little Principessa.
