Well I certainly wouldn't spay her while she's in heat, or when she's
not eating. It may be that she's eating less because she's in heat,
they get so focused with the hormonal surges and need to find a mate.
How is she otherwise? Is she strong and healthy now? It's so stressful
having them go through surgery. I had all my felv kitties spayed before
I knew they were positive, otherwise I'd have been biting my fingernails
too. And you've had that horrible experience with a perfectly healthy
kitty passing after surgery. I think my bottom line is that I can't
sanction having intact animals under my protection. If they cross my
door, they don't go back out intact.
