I'm so sorry to hear about Taz and Zoee. It sounds like surgery for Taz is a good option and you could do some research to find the best place to take him. I go to Adobe Animal Hospital in Los Altos and they perform a lot of difficult surgeries and the vets and vet techs are all wonderful caring people so you might want to consider this place as an option. My vet specializes in cats and she performs surgeries on Mondays.

I'm glad to hear that Zoee is now home and I hope that she'll continue to do well. Is she on any kind of medication for her seizures? I've heard that phenobarbitol works in some dogs if I'm remembering correctly.
