Hermes Wed. X-Ray & Skin Biopsy *UPDATE BACK HOME* Prays for Recovery after Surgery

[Anikaca77]

Well today we are taking Little Man back to the vets at 2:15 p.m.

We want to have his head looked at to make sure it looks like it's healing fine and also he has now developed a cold.

His eyes are dripping and he's sneezing and sounding very congested.

Please say a pray for my Little Man.

Thanks,
Melissa

I'm so sorry too hear about the cold, we had one run through our house. It takes some time but it will clear.
Good news about the ring worm. Our Lenny sratches his head to the point of blood. then he heals and several months later he'll do it again. No ryme or reason. Can't miss it white cat red blood.
Good luck with the tests.

I just realized that I haven't posted an update. I must have too much stuff going on or something.

I took Hermes to the vets last Thursday and the vet said Hermes lungs sounded clear and that it was a probably a herpes flair up and an URI.

She said she could give him a shot which will last for 10 days instead of having to give him a pill everyday so of course I wanted to do that wince that's easier on him and it's not stressing him out.

The vet took off his cone to get a better look at his head wound and as soon as she was touching near the wound he was raising his back foot like he wanted to scratch at it.

She thinks that another 14 days with the cone on should be long enough hopefully. The vet said that we should keep the cone on for an additional 7 days after the scab falls off so that way maybe he won't reopen the wound.

If he does reopen the wound I will have to take him to our vets to get a skin biopsy done and hopefully that would tell us what is wrong but I'm really hoping we don't have to go down that road and that his wound will heal up.

I just got on this today, finally, over my lunch hour. Poor, poor little guy! He is CUTE, though! How old is he? He reminds me a lot of my Dottie in appearance. I'll keep him and you in my prayers..........

Aw, poor li'l guy. Those cones sometimes make them think they're being punished. I wish we could get the point across to them that it's for their own good. We'll say prayers that he'll do well w/the cone on and that he'll heal up so that he won't have to wear it again.

He actually just turned 3 yrs on May 7th.

Thanks for your prays, Dottie looks like such a sweetheart.
