It’s been 5 hours since I’ve picked my kitten up from being spayed. And she still hasn’t moved from her bed. She still looks like she’s had way too much anesthesia. Can this happen where they are super lethargic for a longer time than usual.

She had a major abdominal surgery, so she will be tired and sore from that as well as effects from anesthesia. I'd keep an eye on her tonight, and if she is still acting this way in the morning, have her seen by a vet. If you are very concerned about her, you can take her into an ER vet now.
