Thanks everyone for the huigs. I need them!

I dreamt HORRIBLY last night -- al dreams of crying and hissing cats with all means of deformities and mean attitudes. Today is going to be a loooongg day until I am able to hear from the vet that she did wonderfully and is awake & resting.

You and Flutter are in my thoughts and prayers. Will be looking for a great update from you.

(((Hugs)))

Any word yet or is it to early? I am on pins and needles waiting.....

[catnapper]

Laura, thanks for asking. You think you're on pins and needles, imagine what I'm like!

I just called, and she has not gone into surgery yet. They think she'll go in around 3:00 my time (its 12:30 now) another two and half hours before she goes under, and then they said to give them an hour after surgery starts to call to check on how it went.

Something in the back of my mind keeps screaming: stop them! Tell them you're coming to get her and she does NOT need the surgery! I keep telling myself that its for her own good. So she doesn't bang and hurt her leg, so it doesn't get cut open on a near daily basis. I know if I had a boo boo that I kept cutting open, I would not like it. So I keep telling myself, this is a good thing for her. But my heart is screaming for me to rush over there and kidnap her away in the next 2 hours. I am driving my self crazy!

I can tell the kitties miss her, especially Harry. Even Abby is missing her. I'm trying not to think about how Angel is running around the house looking for her.... because that only breaks my heart more knowing Angel is leaving me next Thursday for her own forever home... will Flutter do the same for Angel next week?

I am so over fostering! This kitten season has broken my heart a million times over. Perhaps I just love them all too much.

Ok, I just called and they are finishing up the surgery. Dr. K is performing the surgery, and well, the man is a god among vets. I fell soooo much better knowing he's the one who is doing the surgery.

I will call to bother them later tonight to make sure she woke up from the anesthesia. Then I get to call tomorrow morning after 8:30 (which you all know means 8:31 ) Then I'll get to pick up my little Flutter Butter and take her home. I am soooo happy to hear the surgery went well (at least until the point I called - they did say they were finishing up)

My porr little girl - its all over now. I don't know whether to be sad or relieved.

I must have made an impression on the poor vet techs with my dozen calls today.... I just got a call from the vet. He said he's done, and she did great. He said the tube is out and she's already starting to wake up. He said she'll most likely go right back to sleep and sleep clear through the night.

He did warn me that it looks pretty gruesome and that I will be shocked at her "little naked chicken wing"

Did I tell you what a great vet he is?


Big exhale.... WHEW!

It's 4:30, any word yet?
