They should come through without a problem  ;D

Obviously there are ruisks with all ops but neutering is very safe.

Welcome to Purrs  ;D

There is always a risk with every Op but spaying is so quick i am sure you have nothing to worry about.
Just remember they will need a light dinner that night (IE chicken).

Your mum is right, they will have a much longer life, as well as a happier one, thank you for doing the responsible thing. I am sure they will be fine

The risks of the spay are minimal compared with the risks if cats are not spayed. Also nowadays the anaesthetics used are very safe.

Try not to worry too much, Kitty was spayed last week, and the op went just fine.  She is having her stitches out on Monday.  The only problems we had was with her not eating due to wearing a buster collar, but that was soon remedied thanks to the advice I got on here  :hug:

When we first picked her up, she was still sleepy, ate a little boiled white fish, and then slept.

Definately take her back, a high temp can be really dangerous. AB injection would start to work pretty quick so best she goes back for something else.
