Keeping her still so hard when Juliet had her hernia surgery. She'd always been an outside cat, as far as I know anyway. She came here as a stray that wouldn't let us near her. I had to keep her inside in a crate for over a week because her hernia was so severe that the doctor wasn't sure he could even get enough flesh to cover over where the organs were sticking out. I made sure to do it though, so we wouldn't have to have another surgery. I'm sure your Athena will recover wonderfully.
