I am sorry but I have only just seen this thread. Bless you Lisa and Kevin for not giving up on Porch and I so glad that he came through the surgery well.
Saying prayers and sending positive thoughts that he has a speedy and good recovery.

I went to visit Porch after work. He still has an IV, and little groggy/grouchy but looked well. They showed me a digital picture of what they took out of him. I couldn't believe it. A huge length of colon packed with poop. It was unbelievable. I guess Porch had Megacolon and they gave me literature to read up on. They want him on a special diet which is going to be VERY difficult with 16 other cats. We'll figure something out. I will let you all know how he's doing in the next few days. Thank you all again for your support!!
Hugs and Kisses from Porch!

K & L, Do you free-feed with food down all the time? (if so) Do you think you can teach them to eat 2 meals a day, with no food down? That way Porch can have his food in one place and the others can have theirs someplace else.

Yes we do free food, and we may have to go that route. This will all work out in the end, it will just take some adjustments for us all. Things aren't so easy in a multicat household huh? Thanks for the idea and input.

Life is a one time gift and it's such a pitty to lose it too early, no matter the reason.
I am so glad your husband decided to try everything for this little guy. I hope he gets well soon.

Porch made it throught the night! They said he even purred this morning. They will start him on a little food this afternoon. Sounds like he's gonna make it!

Woohooo!!
Don't be afraid that your life will end. Be afraid that it will never begin.

Hoorayy!!!!
We won't stop the crossing of fingers and paws.
What you describe sounds very much like the problem my poor little Meo had in 1978. She was the daughter of my first cat Grisette and now Filou's furrrlfriend Juni reminds me of her. I was so sad when she had to die at a year or so (and decided to always keep my cats indoor). Now I am happy to see there is hope for Porch.

Here's what Porch had and the procedure that was done:
