Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Female | spayed | 2 lbs
I just got my kitten from the shelter and checked her stitches. This morning and I'm worried that this isnt normal.. I've never had a female kitten. Everyone tells me it's fine they take time to heal. Does this look like I need to take her to a clinic!? She doesnt act hurt and nothing when I touch it. But I'm worried

It looks ok. I just suggest you apply a thin layer of Neosprin to it twice a day because it’s a bit raw. I wouldn’t be worried unless it gets very swollen or is open and oozing. Please feel free to ask more questions if you need to. Best wishes!
