Sorry I didn't see this before but I'm glad the surgery went well and she's at home recovering

Thanks guys! She is doing a whole lot better, we took off her bandage after 24 hours and it really doesn't look as bad as we expected! The vet did have to amputate most of her toe though because it was too infected. We put a sock on her because she was constantly wanting to lick it and the vet didn't want to give us an E collar But she has actually been out of her room a lot more and making trips upstairs to eat and get her meds or just to hang out!!

I'm glad to hear the surgery went well. Hope that toe heals up quickly.
Get well soon Shadow.

Im so glad it went well , poor thing..what they go thur..good thought for him

Poor thing!, I hate it when they have to be away and I always wonder what they are thinking "Mommy doesnt love me anymore" or "Will I see my home again".

I am thinking about that now as Sophie will go into surgery in 9 days to clean her teeth and maybe having one or two back teeth taken out.

It breaks my heart but she will get over it and probably wont speak to us for weeks to come

Well, we had to take her back in today We've kept a sock on her foot but last night and this morning she decided to chew it off and it started bleeding. The vet said it looked a bit raw and he rewrapped it up and wanted the bandage to stay on for 4 more days...well she chewed it off again when we weren't looking They gave us an E collar but she freaks out and was going nutso so we have just decided to keep her on a leash near us at all times so she can't mess with it...*sigh*
