Hope she heals quickly.

Gosh, I would have thought they would have noticed that before they sent her home! I will call them tomorrow. If nothing else, I can email the pics and they can tell me if she needs to come in. I'll try and get a better side pic.

MANY girls get an irritation from the stiches on the inner layer. That is what this looks like. Since It does not look red, open or seeping, I would not worry, just monitor.

Miss Sweet Stuff looks as pretty as ever.

The first picture doesn't look normal to me, but I'm no expert.

Her tummy
looks much more normal in the second picture. It's a great idea to email some pictures to the Vet if you can.

Winnie actually got inside twice today. She ran in while I was taking trash outside. Lucky for me all the other cats were shut in the front room. I don't open an outside door unless Angel is locked up somewhere. She wants to run out any door that opens, inside door or outside.

Here are a couple more pics of Winnie's bump. It looks worse when she stands on her hind feet. I'll be calling the vet in the morning I think.

Like so many of my PT friends, I'm in love with both Winnie and Angel, Chester and Grandma too. It seems the best you can do for Winnie is contact your vet about her tummy. It may be nothing and I pray that it is but your vet is best able to determine that. You've done so much for Winnie right from the start. For Winnie and your own peace of mind, see what your vet has to say. Please know my prayers are with Winnie right now. Would you give her some comforting lovies from me?

It sounds like all is going to be just fine with Grandma, Chester, and Angel. I have to agree that Chester and Grandma are teaching Angel exactly who's who in the house. Could I ask you to give each of them lots of scritchies and lovies from me?

Please let us know what your vet says about Winnie?

I just called the vet's office. They said they wouldn't be able to tell anything from pics. They advised to wait until the end of the week and see how Winnie is doing. She may be having trouble absorbing the stitches. They said that happens fairly often. To me it did look a tiny bit smaller this morning but maybe that's just wishful thinking. Anyway, unless it gets worse, we will wait a few more days. The stitches themselves looked really good this morning.

If it does get worse, they said they will be glad to see her. So, we wait. In the meantime, Winnie is enjoying chasing bugs.

Thanks everyone for the prayers and well wishes for her and us.
