Think of Mz Logan, Please *update 3/10/09*

[K9karen]

Luckily I haven't ever had to start a post under Health for Mz Logan. But I noticed today that there was a slight growth on top of her left eyelid. It's hard to explain, but as of this morning, her lashes are stuck together and crusty. She only rubbed her eye once that I noticed, and believe me, I've been watching her like a hawk. Her eye itself seems OK. She's been letting me raise her lid and look at it, so I don't think it hurts, but it has to be annoying. It looks cyst like, but it developed overnight, or so I think. I hug and kiss her all day and didn't notice anything terrible yesterday. It seemed to pop up overnight. My first thought was that she hurt herself outside, from a branch or maybe a critter.

Anyway, she has a vet appointment at 1030a on Wed. with my fave doc, the owner. He hasn't seen Logan since I got her, as he's cut his hours, but I take it as a good omen that I got an immediate appointment with Dr Fox (cute, huh?)

Please, if you have time and remember, keep Mz Klo in your thoughts that nothing is serious with her big beautiful brown eye. Thanks all.

I will be thinking of Logan tomorrow and I really hope it is something that can easily be fixed.

Kisses and well wishes for Klo. I do hope it's something simple and not serious. At least you didn't have to wait long for an appointment. Leaves less time for worrying.

Aww, poor K-lo, we'll be thinking of her!

[Freedom]

Prayers for K-Lo!

When RB Ozzy arrived here as a foster he has an eyelid cyst. His was in a position such that it rubbed the eye every time he blinked. The vet was able to remove it in a half day stay, with sedation, not anesthesia.

I do hope this one is similarly easy to deal with!

Thinking of logan and wondering how it went?

Thank you my lovely, wonderful friends, for your concern! I know how hard it can be to worry about a pet other than your own, so I really, really appreciate it with all my

Whew! It's *only* a tear duct infection. Dr sweet, handsome, adorable, gave me hugs and kisses Dr Fox (he took care of RB Cody for 11+ years and cried his eyes out when Cody was PTS) said it wasn't serious, but needs attention. So Mz *I'll show you my teeth but not bite* Logan, is on prednisone ointment on her eyelid (first time was a breeze until she realized what was going on regardless of endless cookies) and antibiotics 2x a day until March 14, when she will have it *fixed*. She's also had a teeny weeny piece of skin on her inside lid forever, but it's not affected her cornea or vision, but they'll remove that too. And do her *talons*

Logan is already looking better since her 1st dose of antibiotic and cream. It doesn't seem to bother her now at all. She lets me stare at it and touch her eye, but the 2nd coating of ointment was difficult. She never ever bites, but moves away and bares her teethies to scare me, but she's a phoney baloney. Doc Fox said the only negative result is that her left eye may look slightly smaller than the other. That freaked me out. Logan has the biggest brown eyes ever and the longest lashes.

Anyway..*brag brag*, he couldn't believe the difference in her personality. A bit stressed, but she took treats from his hand, accepted his rubs, leaned against him. He loves her and I got another tight hug for doing a fantastic job on her! She was so good. Lots of praise and kisses.

Thanks again, all. Of course, I'm so grateful that it's not serious and it'sher 1st medical problem, other than hip dysplasia which isn't too bad with proper care. But, as you all know, I'll be beside myself until she out of surjury. I won't even go home to wait (no Klo in the house), but I will be in the room when they knock her out before operating.

you guys.

Glad everything is OK. WHEW ...

Thinking of you still.
