I'm sure Colette will update a bit later, but the news is Jasper went home tonight! He was doing very well at the clinic. He passed food without problems so he gets to go home to recover.

I myself do understand the hesitance expressed here. If it were the other way round I would be cautious as well. Too many stories like this turn out not to be true. As for the clinic, all the ones I have ever dealt with usually let you pay when you pick your pet up. I've had a couple of cats operated on because they swallowed elastics and I got to pay for that after the fact.

Thank you though for your kind thoughts.

Get well Jasper!
