Hi kitty
Yes it sound like it, my cat was neuter a year and she had a lot of we clots just were the stitches were, if you are really worried ring the vet and explain to them what is happing to your kitten. They should take a look at her for free

Keep an eye on it, it should be fine. It isn't uncommon for a blood clot to appear. If you see one bigger than pea size, I would definitely take her in for a check up. Also, if you start seeing more in the next few days.
Make sure that her behavior hasn't changed, that she's eating and drinking as usual too.
Good luck!

I would call the vet right away and describe the problem. I'm sure they will let you know if you should be worried or not.
It's a good idea to let them know about anything suspicious.
I'm getting my cat neutered soon and appreciate this news. I will be looking out for suspicious things just from your question.

Probably. It takes about a week for cats to get back to normal after a surgery. Keep an eye on it, make sure that he isn't licking himself too much. Sometimes this can cause problems healing.

More than likely it is due to surgery. If the kitten is moving around fine and not complaining about the wound she should be fine.
