My poor sore baby boy Georgie :-(

[QueenScoopalot]

I just got him home, and he's in such awful pain despite the pain injection. And he's quite bloody. I set him up in a tiny cage to limit his mobility for a few days, but enough so he has a small litterpan and his food. I stuck a nice thick lambyskin (fake) pad under him, along with a heating pad. The vet wasn't there when I went to pick Georgie up, and as usual everyone who works there weren't able to answer many of my questions. Basically Georgie became a guinea pig today. Dr. Dunn isn't even sure that the surgery will help him, but it'll be a wait and see thing. He didn't charge for the surgery itself, only the X-rays and neutering and pain injection. So it was fairly reasonable considering. We need lots of prayers that Georgie will overcome the pain fast, and be able to start his P.T soon. I want to hold him and hug him so badly, but he's still quite out of it, but coming to, and hurting. I hope this wasn't all for nothing. I am praying he won't be in agony in a day or two.

Oh the poor poor darling. I truly hope he didn't go through this in vain!! He will be in my thoughts and prayers.

Poor Georgie, I do hope he is feeling better soon. Fingers crossed for him.

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

Oh poor baby. I sure hope the pain meds work for him and he's feeling better soon.

[Prairie Purrs]

Poor sweetie! I hope the pain goes away soon and the surgery helps. We're all rooting for you, little guy!

I can't even go near the cage he's in. His cries are breaking my heart. Hubby's leaving for Oklahoma on Thurs. so I'll move Georgie into the bedroom when he leaves. I don't care if he cries all night, at least he'll have a bit more comfort of more familiar surroundings. I can't risk letting him near the stairs (that he had mastered prior to sugery). My poor baby boy's a hurting eunuch!

How agonizing to watch your cat in pain. I hope he feels better soon and that the surgery helps.

[Queen of Poop]

I can imagine the distress you are both feeling. Hopefully the pain subsides quickly and you can both get back to normal. Prayers for quick healing coming your way.

PEH!!!

Women, no passion at all....

Surely they gave you some pain medication to give him over the next few days?


I'm sorry to sound abrupt, but I would not have left that office without speaking to someone who could tell me exactly what was done to Georgie, and what to expect over the next few days. That's what being a nurse for 40+ years has done to me. I won't leave without answers.


Please give gentle kisses to Georgie.

Jan did they give him any pain meds? If not you might try giving him a bit of aspirin. I know I'm talking to an expert here but just in case you didn't know. Our vet told us we can use about a 1/4 of an aspirin every other day for cats. I've done it many times and no harm. I found the best way to give it to them is to crush it and mix it in a tiny bit of water and then pull that into a syringe. It's breaking my heart just thinking about the pain he must be in and no meds. So many vets won't give pain meds but since he had more than the nueter then I think they should have given him something. Bless his heart. I'm praying for you and for him. I know it has to be awful for you to watch.

Get well wishes for Georgie, gentle smoochies on top of his head from me.


I called and made a donation towards his bill today to help my little love out so he can someday walk and run like a normal kitty .... or as normal as he can.. I just hope all this does some good for the little sweetie!

An article I found online about "swimmer kittens". Georgie could have been helped so many months ago if I had him when he was born. Instead the woman sat back, drinking, going to biker conventions etc. watching Georgie drag himself around. The vet wants to see him again in the morning, so I'm dropping him off again...poor baby.

Oh gosh Jan, I can hardly type to see through my tears.

Poor, poor sweet baby Georgie. I hate the thought that he became a guinea pig today.

Dear lord, please don't let Georgie suffer too much with pain.

I hope and pray that he will be feeling better tomorrow.

Sweet gentle hugs to you little one.

(((((HUGS))))) for you Jan, as my heart goes out to you having to see him like this.

Lets all pray that this was not all in vain.

Please keep us updated on his situation.

I hope georgie gets some relief from his pain and that his surgery helps improve his life. I am such a sucker for the special needs babies! that is why most of mine are with me, they are the ones no one else wanted.
