No, they were the dissolving type. And after they dissolved, she was left with a lump. From what I can feel/see (she won't let me touch anywhere around there) the lump has pretty much disappeared.

Could it be a hernia? What do those look like, Nurse Sandra?

The purpley-blue-red color has faded into a deep infectious looking pink. She's sore!! She's walking a bit funny & you can't pick her up w/out her 'yelping'. We've doctored it with Neosporin but still... I SOOOOO wish there was something else I could do for her.

I have to pause and say it's wonderful to have an animal loving boss--allowing me to be late for work tomorrow! K'Cee will be a "drop-off" -- otherwise the vet couldn't see her for a wk or two!

I'll let you guys know what I find out, when I find out...ASAP!
