Apollo Is Being Fixed Today! **Question - About Males Being Fixed**

My baby is getting fixed today. I dropped him off at 8 a.m. and I won't be able to bring him home till tomorrow morning.

I miss my baby Apollo already.

Prays that everything goes well and he heals up just fine.

Thanks,
Melissa

Prayers that he comes home safe and sound and not realize anything has happened!

Good luck little Apollo.

Wow! They sure are makig sure he is okay before he goes home. I picked up both my boys within about 5 hours. Here's to him recovering beautifully! :love:

I'm a little late - he's probably already done, but heal quickly you little cutie!

Prayers on the way! I am already dreading the time Angel has to go in for her surgery. The kitties have all paws crossed too. :love:

The Eternal Baby Awesome Angels are with Appolo now to help him through the surgery and bring him lots of treats from thier trip to the Western USA:love::love:

What a Great Feel Good Story.:love::love:

:love: Sending Lots of Prayers.. Yes My CH boy Marley that looks just like Apollo had his manhood surgery last Tuesday & did just great.. Keep us posted..

Apollo, today you are a MAN!

Hi Everyone.

Thank you so much for the well wishes! I spoke with the vets yesterday at about 2:30 p.m. and he was just waking up from surgery. They said he was doing just fine. I asked them about the meds he was supposed to get in the evening and they said they could give him an injection of the meds but I told them I'd just bring the meds up to him because he because he doesn't mind taking the liquid amoxi.

I went up to see him around 6:30 ish last night and he was still so sleepy. He wanted lovin which made me feel good that he wasn't upset with me.

I gave him his favorite blanket too to lie on instead of a towel they had in for him. I also gave him tons of kisses and told him I'd be back for him today. I tried to get them to let me take him home but they said no that it was hospital rules so I obeyed of course.

I sure did miss him last night but I did a lot of cleaning last night, esp. vacuuming so I didn't have to scare him today with it and that way he can rest and just enjoy being home.

I'm picking him up at 11 a.m. this morning.

Thanks again for the prays.

I've been so preoccupied w/Yodie that I missed this thread. I'm sure that Apollo is home and doing just fine by now. Ear scritchies to the boy.....:)

Well I picked up my little guy today he's at home in the bathroom confined. The only thing I think is weird is they leave the incisions open on his butt.

Does anyone else’s vet do this?

All of my other boys cats came home the same day and they were fine. I don't recall my other vet every saying the wound was open I was always told to watch it but on most of the male cats we have they are all fuzzy so it was hard to tell where the area was.

I'm sorry, I can't remember - the last time I had a male fixed was a LONG time ago and he was semi feral, so looking at his rear wasn't an option ;). Call and ask the vet before they close what the reason was for it.

:) Yes my Baby CH boy Marley was just done last week.. Yes they leave it open.. They have the two button spots sered & with invisable bandage.. As the wittle boo boo heals then the cat licks off the area good & in time the hair will grow back.. All my boys were done that way.. Apollo is just fine & will do good.. Quick question why is he confined to the bathroom?? He will be fine with the other babies..

I put him in the bathroom, they told me he should stay in there for a week so he doesn't cause any stress to that area or cause it to bleed.
