Hello everyone. It has been quite some time since I have lurked or posted anything here but I hope all is doing well. I have been finishing up school lately so I haven't been doing much of anything. I have noticed how this forum has grown so much in just the last few months and it's exciting. Also, I haven't posted in a while because there simply hasn't been any Mika news. However, she got spayed this morning and I am currently waiting to pick her up. I was just wondering, does anyone have any advice or tips or how Mika might act or just anything that I need to know? I am already feeling bad because she went into the vet with her tail wagging this morning. I felt like I betrayed her when I left, haha. I just wanted to make a new post and update everyone on Mika as well as soak up some of the invaluable advice that resides here. Here is a new pic of Mika and I will update this thread later with pics of her post-surgery. Thanks in advance for any replies.

Glad to see you post again! Mika should be fine.. just keep her activity to a minimum, no jumping or the like, for at least a week. Watch the incision, should she aggravate it she'll probably need a cone and see the vet for antibiotics as to not infect the site. Other than that, after a day or so with the pain, she should be back to normal! Good luck!

She's gorgeous! Glad to have you back! Maybe this summer you can make one of our meetups in ATL.

Awww cutie Mika!!! I felt the exact same way when I dropped Keiko off the morning of her spay... and of course the guilt didn't stop when I picked her up and she looked all miserable/drugged. I had some bad luck with Keiko's spay because the glue they used for her didn't hold (twice...) so there were multiple trips back to the vet and even to the E-vet in the middle of the night. I'm sure everything will work out just fine!! Keep an eye on her, and I can't wait to see more spam! :o)

Sending some good vibes your way! I hope Mika is doing well after her spay. And we demand more Mika spam, too. :)
