Hi all again,
Just to inform you that Fifi the siemese cross has been spayed, and the op went brilliant, she has had her stitches out and has recovered brilliantly, although this isn't why I need your opinion, my other cat Chaos, ( had her over a year) She went missing two nights ago and came back this evening,
Although when she came back her stomach seemed quite tense, Im not to sure on what is wrong tbh..
When I got her from her past owner she assured me she was spayed & jabbed(have seen the papers for jabbing) I asked her over and over again to be definate, otherwise I would of got her done, and lately she has been wanting to go out so approx 4 weeks ago started letting her out every now and then, until 2 nights ago when she went awol..
She is acting as though she was before except maybe a little more loving(although this could be due to missing us, as we are very close to her)
I have taken some photos so you can try and see whats wrong...


On this first one she was leant to one side hense why the tense part(which u can see) is on the left(or right :S Im no good with sides, but u can clearly see)

On this one she is a little bit more straight although she was still leaning to one side..

Here from above

and here is just a picture of her for you to look at


Any ideas on what is going on, we are going to book a vet appointment first thing in the morning, although earliest they will be able to see us is thursday :@
So if any one can shed some light would be very much appreciated.

Forgot to mention it doesnt look as big as it does on the picture, its noticable just not as noticeable as it looks on the picture, and it is both sides.

If you think she maybe pregnant check out her nipples - are they swollen or quite pink? Has her behaviour changed i.e. sleeping more?

If she is not pregnant then look at her claws - are they scuffed. If they are this can be a sign that she has been hit by a car (I am not trying to panic you here - just trying to rule out some things).

First and foremost though to put your own mind at rest is get her checked at the vets as soon as you are able.

I do hope she is fine and do let us know how you get on.

I would have said something similar to what Kaz has already said - in reality, the vet would need to check her over to be sure. They may want to examine her thoroughly - its difficult for anyone looking at pictures on their monitor to give you very clear guidance/advice. I hope you can get an appointment soon and that she will be fine. Sending good wishes.

Best purrs

her nipples wont show any signs untill she is about 3wks pregnant,
when she had her booster, did you not ask your vets if she had been spayed,
they should be able to tell you by feeling her tummy?

Her nipples are fine, no scuffing on her nails, she does seem herself although she was laying down next to me alot more last, and rolling onto her back(she's a big baby like that!) Although the other day I she got tree sap stuck to her coat, and was pulling the fur out were it was, gave her a bath got her all clean, no more tree sap and yet she had ripped some more out from an unknown place( maybe there was just a little on her still but It came to mind she maybe ripped it from her nipples) When she came in i was at my partners for about half an hour then had to go to friends, but for that half an hour she just wanted to lay somewere..I assume because she had been out for three days.. We have booked the appointment 11.25 Thursday morning She seems fine her normal self. Its got me :S
When she went for her booster she went with my partner as I was in hospital looking after my brother.
