I'm trying to gather all the information I can about how others have
treated and/or cared for sprites with incomplete spays.
 
Lucy is a little 6 year old MF girl that appears to be experiencing
symptoms of an incomplete spay.  She will be seeing the Vet in the next
couple of days, and I would like to take as much info along as I can,
since I doubt he has treated this before.
 
She has had surgery to find the remnants, but nothing was found.  (Per
previous owner) When she was turned in to the shelter about a month ago,
her vulva was a little enlarged, about the size of a pinhead, but now has
increased to the size of a pencil eraser.  Her previous owner was keeping
her in the garage, so I suspect the lights on longer in the evening since
she is inside, has probably been what has triggered the change.  She has
'eye rings', which I suspect may be hormone related.  Her coat has improved
and she feels solider than before.  (Not quite so frail.) Thanks for any
and all help.
