I, too, am sorry that the vet you would have liked to see Pouncer was not there!! That happens with human doctors,too!! And just like with a human, you had to push to get the XRay and then something was found!!! Thank heavens Pouncer has you as his guardian!!!! Like another post said, don't even think the "c" word! It is just a stone! MORE PRAYERS for Pouncer and you!!
