11/14/11 - It's been two weeks and a day and we are now stitch free! The procedure only took about an hour - anesthesia - suture removal - wake up and we are off and heading home.
We will stay in the study one more night - tonight - and then he's allowed around the zoo!
Don't let him 'go after' himself (licking/cleaning) too much or he will bleed and could develop scar tissue. The area looks clean and the surgical nurse said things look great, he looks great and we should be just fine. We can go back to our regular litter - oh goody, I don't like Yesterday's News as you can't put that much in box because you have to dump the whole thing in order to clean the box - doesn't scoop.
PHEW!
He hasn't eaten yet today and I know he's hungry, but a little out of it from the drug. He'll sleep most of if not all of the way home. He can return to normal activity, running, jumping, cleaning, etc. This is a relief. Just one more night!
