I just got my kitten spayed, and the vet said try to not let her jump on anything higher than the couch, or run. She's a kitten! How can I possibly keep her from doing such? I have another cat, and they like to rough house. I don't want to lock her up..............Any ideas?

try putting your kitten in a different room than your other cat and just hold her while you watch tv or sumthing. either that or you can get her some catsip milk for kittens and make sure its luke warm , some of that and she'll feel full and tired and will rest up for sure. If all else fails tho, you might have to put her in a cage. Sticking her in a cage or risking the stitches opening up isn't that hard of a choice. Try to make her calm down and if not... the cage awaits her with a fluffy blanket and soft music to calm her.

I would suggest keeping the other cat away from the kitten. I know it can be hard, I have 3 animals myself, but it needs to be done.

Keeping a kitten from running and jumping is like trying to keep a dog from licking and sniffing crotches. You may have to keep him in a pet carrier or a kennel until she heals. Good luck!!!

try to keep her confined to a small room, like a bedroom, for about one week. There shouldn't be too much high stuff in there. And she doesn't have a lot of room to run around and be her nutty little kitten self.

you might have to seperate the two of them for a about a week so she can heal. Otherwise, you'll have to constantly supervise the cat. There really is no way to not keep you cat from jumping, sorry.

I know. Its like trying to stop a two year old! Keep her separated from the other cat, until her incision has healed. She should be ready to be back to normal within a week!

separate the cats and let the kitten stay some room with nothing too high or anything sharp. act calm around her don't play games or anything. if you must walk slower around her.

cat nip. it'll keep your kitten sort of on a "high." its not bad for the cat, but it will keep her a bit sleepy and out of it. less energy= less jumping. did i help at all?

Keep her isolated in a safe room, or you'll wind up taking her back in and paying more money when she rips open her incisions.
