I'm so sorry to hear about Bastian. Seems I had never heard of these as being such a problem, but first Fister, then Boots, now Bastian and I know there have been others mentioned here. Tubby never had any sort of problem like this, and I'm wondering if they are neutering cats differently these days than they did 15 1/2 years ago. Which is entirely possible since advances in medicine seem to move fairly quickly, but it seems like maybe they're missing something since this seems to be such a problem.

Just curious and confused. But hoping everything turns out well for Bastian.
