Gracie and Gabriel at the vets today

[catlover4ever]

Well it's the big day for the both of them. Gracie will be spayed and Gabriel will be neutered.

Gabe's surgery will be a little different from a normal neutering. Gabe is cryptorchid, his testicles never decended and they are still up in the abdominal area, therefore he will have his lower belly opened for the removal. Even though this condition usually renders the male cat sterile it was recommended that I still neuter him so the testicles don't get hung up with any other organs.

I am so lucky to have such wonderful vets. They said it would be no problem for Gabe to stay with Gracie until tomorrow. He feels so much safer when his sister is around.

Please keep them in your prayers. Thanks.

Oh Meg, I'll hold your hand today and you can hold mine tomorrow. R&R are going in tomorrow for their "spaneuter" as Richard calls it. Poor Gabe, having to have the extra surgery. Prayers and crossed paws here that everything goes well. I'll be watching for updates on G&G.

Just got an update....they are both doing just fine. Gabe will stay in the same kennel as his sister until I pick them up tomorrow.

I guess everyone is in love with these two.....but then what's not to love (OK, OK I'm biased). They say they look just like twins. The staff said that Gabe's eyes (or lack of them) make him "oh so adorable". I could not agree more!!!!!

Thanks for all the support.

I'm so glad they came through it with no problems. They'll just sleep it off tonight and be ready for their meowmie tomorrow.

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

Awww....they all sound so sweet at your Vet's office. :D I'm so glad to hear everything went well. Like Lori says, they'll just be sleeping it off tonight and will be ready and rarin' to get home tomorrow. :D

Meg..my day's been so chaotic, I finally am able to catch up here for a moment before I'm out the door again. So glad the Monkeys did well, and will be allowed to stay together. And I have to agree that Gabriel's little teeny eyes make him look extra charming for some reason. What no pictures?? :confused: :confused: :D Give them both lots and lots of kisses when they come home tomorrow just for me!! ;)
