Well, my little Cgirl is home and is she ever mad at me! Puddy has been giving her lessons, apparently, and she hissed at everyone when I took her in, including me! When I picked her up this evening, the vet tech said "Wow, she's really upset!" but she didn't know about Cgirl being deaf and a vestibular hypoplasia baby. She said "She thrashed around so much, I was afraid to pick her up." When I explained to her, she said "Oh sweetie, I didn't know." Creamsicle pitched a fit the entire drive home, during rush hour and when we got to my town of Canal Fulton, Old Canal Days had just started. It's just a little street fair but CFers treat it as though it was Disney World. My drive normally takes me 45-50 min. It took 90 today. With Cgirl yelling all the way.

Anyhow, I didn't get to talk to Dr. Lee today because they said he's been in surgery all day and was still in surgery when I picked her up this evening. But another vet tech told me that he was pleased w/how well her hair follicle infection had cleared up and that her skin looked good. She has to go back for one more shot in 2-3 weeks. Most importantly, he didn't find anything unusual; no cysts or tumors, nothing. So she apparently lost the 3 lbs. from being in heat, then getting the infection, then being in heat, then the infection, etc. Hopefully, now her hormones will calm down and my little girl can get some rest and gain that weight back. I can't lose 3 lbs. from hormones but my cat can. Go figure.

I gotta tell ya, this one made me sweat. Spays have always been fairly routine but given her condition and being so underweight, I was nervous. The only other cat that scared me like that was Yodie Yodie because she was so underweight, too, from the ear polyp when she was spayed. But she's fine now and so is my Creamsicle. I was going to have her sleep w/me tonight but I think she's going to punish me for a while by ignoring me. As long as she's ok, I'm ok. I can definitely use the sleep. And Dr. Lee, bless him, gave me another hefty discount. What a good guy. And he's a true healer, too. I'm so relieved! I think I'm going to take a long, hot bath and just veg the rest of the evening. Thank you so much for all your prayers and good wishes, friends. You have no idea what it means to me and my little orangie, Creamsicle.

Oh, what good news, Mary! Sounds like everything has gone wonderfully!

Please give the sweet girl some gentle skritches from me, and both of you get some rest!

Love and hugs and purrs,
Pat and the gang

Glad to hear that Creamsicle's spay went well. Maybe that will help get everything else under control and she'll settle down totally and won't have to have any issues for a while!

Hugs to the sweet Creamsicle!

YAAY!

Welcome home little girl!

Jenn - not that you want to post any 'before' pictures, but an 'after' one would be great.

Good news!

I haven't kept up with PT much in a while, but I read through your whole thread. I'm so sorry that Creamsicle and you have been through so much worry and suffering. I'm so glad to see that her spay went well, her infection is clearing well and she will soon be feeling good again!
