Wonderful News About Starr!!!

[sasvermont]

What a sweet photo. He looks resigned to staying putt!

I hope his recovery is quick and effortless for you. I also hope he cooperates with you when you try to pill him!

((((((((((((((((Starr)))))))))))))))))))))



P. S.

This is a post from about 6 months ago....about the soft blue collar my cat Lucy had to wear after her spaying....

"Lucy, the little black barn cat sailed right through her spaying. She has totally recovered and is as sweet as usual. She did do one really funny thing though. After a few days of wearing the ecollar (soft blue one......because she put her front right paw through the neck of the hard plastic one, along with her neck!!!) she seemed to be fine without the ecollar so I took it off and placed it on the coffee table. A couple of nights after I removed the collar, she got up on the table, put her furry head into the opening of the ecollar (soft one) and put the darn thing back on, all by herself. She walked around as proud as could be for about an hour. It fell off in the kitchen. She didn't repeat this, so I figure it was by accident. What a little goof ball."

Tracey, what a relief that the surgery went well. I hope he'll heal fast and be back to normal in no time.

He looks so sweet there in his litterbox.

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

Awww....poor little guy...looks absolutely beat after such an ordeal. I do find it interesting how cats like to sleep in their litterboxes - what's up with that?

Soft smoochies to Starr. Here's hoping he's feeling much better today and the healing goes well and it's all a bad memory real soon.

I don't remember....is Lily spayed already? Hope so because it seems like you've just been spending way too much time at the vet's lately, Tracey. Here's hoping everything goes well with Starr and your whole crew stays healthy for awhile - just to give you a break from worrying about them all the time.

Aww, look at him! Poor baby. Sending lots of healing vibes to Starr. I hope he feels better in no time!

Awwwww, one little tear trickled down my face at the sight of those stitches. I hope Starr is back to his peppy little self soon.

{{{hugs!}}}

Thanks everyone. Debbie, yes Pearl was already spayed before I adopted her. Starr's doing very well and he managed to get one of paws through the front of his e-collar. I put it back through and then a few minutes later he had taken it off and was trying to lick his stitches. I put it back on and tried to tie it much tighter and I looped the shoestring around his neck and knotted it so hopefully it'll now stay in place. Starr has a very good appetite and is also much more active today. I don't know how much longer he'll let me keep in confined in the cage so I'll just play it by ear.

I'm assuming you meant Pearl, and yes we had her spayed, vaccinated, tested, micro-chipped, the whole shebang before we adopt out! She was good to go when Tracey got her!

That is such great new that Starr is finally back to health and that his surgery went well.

I'm glad he is feeling better and that picture of him in his collar is too darn adorable.

Keep that collar on Starr and leave those stitchies alone now, ya hear.

[Don Juan's mom]

Oh, Starr, don't take off your collar! You look so handsome in it. Much nicer than those icky white plastic ones.

I was a bit upset seeing those stitches too. Zerlina says don't worry, the fur will grow back in NO time, and now you don't have to worry about getting "in trouble."

Don Juan offers his most sincere condolences.

And Aunt Liz says GET WELL SOON!

Tracey, When Yoshi had his surgery he loved sleeping in his hammock, it didn't put any weight on his surgical parts and he slept throughout the nights in that. If you don't have a hammock, they are really easy to make for temporary usage.

I am so glad to hear that this surgery is finally over with! And the same with the ringworm! You must be breathing a nice sigh of relief
