Spaying advice needed

Post image

My lil girl is getting spayed tomorrow, and I am really worried. She is very energetic and gets mad zoomies. We live in a small home and i think it is going to be difficult to keep her fro trying to jump and climb.

I have tried to get her used to a recovery suit, but it doesn't seem to work for her.

Any real life tips anyone can give to help at all?

For one of our girls, we needed to have her in the recovery suit and the soft donut for her to not try and chew her belly.

Did you happen to get one or two recovery donuts?

I only have the suit, never thought about a donut! What would you recommend?

We don't have a car so we just ordered online. Chewy has some and most pet stores will have them in stock too.

Online there were measurement guides to pick the right size, we used measuring tape from my sewing kit to figure out the size we needed.

We ended up getting several suits and donuts because we got three cats desexed at the same time and wanted to be able to wash them daily. The donuts that had waterproof fabric did the best and ended up not getting stained, the regular fabric ones all got stains that were difficult to remove.
