A little update on Pouncer:
He did have the surgery Saturday. He's just hanging out at the moment and the vet will call me when she's out of the appointment she's currently seeing.

Whew.... I can breathe a sigh of relief. I was very worried about my hissy boy. Allen apparently misses him. I was wakened by 20 pounds of orange cat insistent on getting pets. Allen never does that unless he's feeling lonely because his buddy's not here or he's locked in another room somewhere.
