She got spayed on Tuesday and finally got a good appetite back. She was really struggling to eat from her big bowl with her cone on, so I took it off. I'm going to leave it off for a bit and see if she can be trusted to leave her incisions alone enough to not need to cone. Anyway, she ate her fill then came to me and started rubbing all over me and purring and just being crazy affectionate lol. She even rubbed up on the dogs but didn't bait them into chasing her like she normally does. She just gave them affection and they licked her head and went about their evening.

Sometimes they put onesies on the spayed kitties instead of cones. If you need an alternative and she will tolerate being dressed

I've never tried tbh. She's been good so far. She's just been sleeping on my bed for the most part lol

If you're able to supervise you can distract her so she won't lick her stitches open and her skin can heal.
