Why does my cat still not wake up after taking anesthesia for 9 hours?

It may be a problem with the cat's own constitution and the dose of anesthetic. If the cat's breathing is normal and there is no twitching, it should be fine. The owner can wait for a while and maybe he will wake up after a while. In addition, the owner should feed the cat some water while waiting to prevent dehydration. He can also feed the cat some glucose to replenish the cat's physical strength and promote the cat's recovery.
