My cat's spay wound dried up. Is it healing? Why is she lethargic?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Cat | Domestic Mediumhair | Female | spayed | 6 months and 17 days old

My cat's spay wound got infected. The vet prescribed antibiotic (5 days). Her wound is now dried up, has some dried blood on it. She also wears medical suit, we should keep it for 7 days. How can I tell if her wound is healing? And also, she is bit letargic, can that be from the antibiotics (Calvamox)? She eats, drinks and goes to toilet normaly

She could be a little lethargic from this antibiotic, i would recommend that you start a new question with a picture of the wound attached, that way i could tell you if it is healing properly or not.
