Hi there...if your cat was recently spayed, the stitches may have opened and your cat would need to be urgently returned to the veterinary hospital. HOWEVER, if it has been a long while since her spay and she is leaving spots of blood this is most likely as a result of a urinary tract infection. She will then need to be evaluated and treated respectively with antibiotics. Please consider ringing your veterinarian to schedule an appointment for her as soon as possible. Left untreated this can develop into a kidney infection which can become life-threatening.

no, they dont
Tom cats may still be attracted to spayed female cats because they may still emit pheromones that attract males. Additionally, the behavior of tom cats is influenced by instinct and territory marking, so they may still try to pursue and mate with a female cat even if she is spayed. Keeping your female cat indoors and providing a safe and secure environment can help prevent encounters with tom cats.
Yes, but they cannot have any kittens.
A spayed female will not come into heat, but may choose to accept males through force of habit if she has bred before. She will still have the standard "female cat" scent, though only cats can detect it.
YES! They can and they do - I can testify firsthand that I have seen a female cat spray. Sometimes they will do it if they are mad about something, or they will do it to mark their territory. However, spaying a cat before she reaches sexual maturity will greatly reduce the risk of the cat ever spraying. If the cat sprayed regularly before spaying, then this may become habit.

No, cats cannot nurse after being spayed because spaying involves the removal of the reproductive organs, including the mammary glands that produce milk for nursing.
Spayed female cats are called just that - spayed, or fixed, female cats.
It smells less, but it still smells like urine.
cats still have hormones even after spaying but heat should stop soon
Spayed female cats and dogs do not menstruate.
Yes, nursing cats can be spayed, but it is generally recommended to wait until the kittens are weaned to reduce the risk of complications.
Yes, but they cannot have any kittens.
Yes, male cats can attempt to mount spayed female cats, especially if they are still exhibiting mating behaviors due to hormonal influences or if they have not been neutered. However, spayed females do not have the hormones that trigger receptivity, so the behavior is typically not successful in terms of reproduction. This behavior can also occur during play or as a display of dominance.
Spay or neuter depends on gender, not species. Females are spayed, males are neutered.
