Lemon is an approximately 2 year old domestic shorthair cat who showed up as a stray at her owner’s home. Shortly after arriving, she gave birth to a litter of 4 kittens. Lemon’s owner decided to keep and care for her, so the decision was made to spay Lemon so she doesn’t have more kittens. At Lemon’s first exam appointment, it was noted that she had some enlarged mammary tissue.
