My spayed cat looks bloated. Is a saggy belly normal after spaying?

Question

She is very bloated and i don’t know why. I have given her infant gas relief drops and that makes it better but it will come back. The vet said it was because she was spayed too early but i don’t think that’s it. Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Female | spayed | 10 months and 25 days old | 8 lbs

Your vet is actually right on this one. She likely just has a saggy belly, which can come about after being spayed. This is normal and shouldn't be anything to worry about. I experienced this with my own female cat! : ) Just keep her active daily to keep her from becoming overweight. As long as she is eating, drinking, urinating and defecating normally, she is likely just fine. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach and take care of that fur baby!
