Poor sweet Chester. :( *UPDATE ON POST 22*

This is great that you were able to catch the reaction and help Chester.
My sisters cat (YEARS ago) went in for the "routine" surgery, woke up just fine then died later that day. :(
I am so glad to hear Chester will be okay.

OMG Taz, I am so sorry to hear about your sister's cat. How horrible. Did she ever find out what caused her cats death.
You just never know when things can go wrong, can you. :(

No, they just said it was a reaction to the knock out drugs (sorry couldn't spell the real word LOL). Yeah, you never know, because he woke up and was fine. He did pass at the vets, not at home. Which now I think was probably a good thing.

Ok, I read Chester's story! What a sweet boy, and just wanting to be loved so much! Boy, did he strike it rich!!! :D

I know how scary that anesthesia can be. Out of all the fosters I've had through the years, I've only had one that had a difficult time. That was Kelsey and she really gave me and the techs a scare .... they called the vet to come back to the clinic. She gave her an injection to help reverse it and it still took her several hours to come around at home. She was so lifeless when I went to pick her up, and just limp. The tech was massaging her frantically and talking to her to wake up! It was a scary time for sure! Thank God she pulled through with no lasting side effects!

I pray that little Chester continues to do well! Good luck not keeping him ... oops, I meant finding him a home!!! :p

Oh yes Kim, he is a real lovebug, that's for sure.

WOW, thank God that Kelsey pulled through. That is one scary story for sure.

Cute comment Kim, very cute. :p

{{{{{{HUGS}}}}}}

I am sooo glad that Chester will pull through. Anesthesia is an scary thing for sure! Chester, keep up the good work & get well soon!

Thanks everyone for your concerns and replies. :)

Chester still has his fever, so he is on antibiotics for 10 days, his scrotum is a little swollen and he is in some pain. The doctor gave him a painkiller shot and if he isn't any better in a few days, I'll have to bring him back.
He hasn't eaten or gone to the bathroom since last night, so I have to keep an eye on that.
Poor boy. They said he was such a good boy while being examined even though he was in pain from it.

Please send out some prayers that sweet Chester will have a full recovery and not have to go back to the vets.

What a lucky little boy Chester is to be in your loving care, Lorraine. I'm glad you were able to get him right back to your vet for follow-up. Praying that all will be well and Chester will be good as new in no time. Would you give him some feel better scritchies and smoochies from me?

It's a good thing you were so observant on his condition. I wish him the best at recovery. Poor guy and poor you! Good Luck!!

Poor Chester, we all are sending get-well prayers for him. He sure had a tough time, didn't he?

O well, now he's where he belongs.......... ;) :D

Poor little guy, I was hoping he was all better by now! Sending gentle pets and kisses to little Chester!
