It sounds like your cat is going through a bit of a rough patch with her digestive health. Since she's been experiencing green diarrhea for four days, it's important to keep a close eye on her. Let's go through a few steps you can take to help her feel better:

Firstly, consider reviewing her diet. Has there been any recent change in what she's eating? Sometimes, new foods can upset a cat's stomach. If you've introduced something new, it might be worth going back to her previous diet to see if that helps improve her condition.

Hydration is also crucial, especially since diarrhea can lead to dehydration. Make sure she always has access to fresh water. You might even try offering her some plain, unsalted chicken broth to encourage her to drink more fluids.

Probiotics could be beneficial as well. They can help restore healthy gut flora, and you can find cat-specific probiotics at pet stores or online.

It's also important to monitor her for any additional symptoms. Watch out for signs like vomiting, lethargy, or a decrease in appetite, as these could indicate a more serious issue.

Since she's already on anti-diarrheal medication, continue administering it as directed. However, if you don't see any improvement, it might be time to reassess her treatment plan with your veterinarian.

Given that she was spayed 16 days ago, it's unlikely that the surgery is related to her current symptoms. However, if the diarrhea persists or worsens, consulting with a veterinarian would be a wise step to rule out any underlying issues.

If you have any more questions or need further assistance, please feel free to reach out. Thank you for taking such good care of your cat.
