Hi Anne Olsson, thanks for sharing your story. We are happy to hear you found the post helpful. It is great to hear your cat is fully recovered from her surgery and can walk normally.

The vet out her in a kind of body garment to stop her investigating the operation site. When we got her home she did not appear to know how to walk She kept trying to walk backwards and rolling over as a result. She and I were both relieved when the vet said it was safe to remove the vest! But it took her a few days to recover her normal walking abilities rather than attempting to walk backwards!
