Under the Knife

The big C has had an issue with an infection on his rump. After some failed antibiotics and an unsuccessful lancing attempt or two, the final decision was that he had to have surgery. And he was a CHAMP! Here is the cute kiddo pre-op. He was smiling away even though I had to wake him at 4am and he wasn't allowed to eat for about 10 hours straight!




We had an hour and a half from our pre-op until the actual surgery. He stayed entertained in the sink-



Here we are right before they put him under. Poor guy was smiling until the end. He was not however smiling upon wake up! It took him a good 30 minutes to get back to himself and then he took a super dooper long nap.


Smiling once again. They let us head home and he's been healing ever since. Post op is today, I'll keep you posted.
