Awww, poor babies. And poor meowmie! I really think it is harder on us than it is on them. I'm looking forward to hearing that they're home safe, sound and comfy. And maybe to seeing some shaved belly pictures of Rumor.

As for the teeth thing, Rizzo had to have that done during his nueter, too. And we ALSO had him microchipped then. Poor cat was a mess. But, afterward, I never noticed him reluctant to eat or acting like his mouth hurt at all. I think baby-tooth extraction is pretty easy.

On a LESS positive note, it did absolutely nothing to lessen his proclivity to chew. I think he actually did get an electrical cord once. At least, I found one chewed down to the wire, and right around that same time, Rizz completely stopped acting interested in electrical cords of all kinds. Still chews everything else, though. Puppycat.
