That's great news that he's home!!

Sounds like he's a good boy when it comes to taking his meds.

A speedy recovery to you, Taz!

Thank you Kirsten!
And Katie, you have a lot on your mind right now. To even take a minute to post for my guy means so much to me. You are such a special person.

I'm glad he is home. Sure hope his recovery is quick.

I'll be watching for more updates.

So I called the vet to ask about the meds. The girl I spoke to was in San Mateo, not the Concord office. She had to contact the Concord office and then get back to me. She calls me back after she looked up his chart and asked if I gave him 1cc. NO! I think I can read. I gave him between .1 and .2cc. She wanted to make sure I didn't overdose him. Geez, Bruce said the exact same thing last night.
So I went to the vet to pick up more meds and the nurse had syringes already full of the exact dosage. Why is everyone thinking I'm overdosing my damn cat!?!

This hurt my feelings. They don't realize that Taz is my BABY.
Anyway, I've got more meds in case he needs it. I just want him to be comfortable. He's already irritated and keeps trying to come out of the room, but I don't want him running around out here.
He loves it when I take his collar off and let him clean his face and paws. I only leave it off of him while I'm right there with him so I can make sure he doesn't lick the incision. Last night he was Mr Sneaky and was licking on the other side of his leg where I couldn't see. Brat!

Oh, he was hissing at Paizly under the bedroom door.

I guess it will be like starting all over again with the two of them once Taz is all healed up. That's okay though. My little man is going to be okay!!!

And I do owe a ton of HUGE thank you's to everyone here on PT for helping me through this.

They're probably just protecting themselves by measuring it out for you. Actually, I'm always thankful when they do that for me. Saves me the work and my eyesight, too. LOL I understand why you feel the way you do, though. Most importantly, Taz is on the mend.
