We are home!..... and though she is a bit wobbly, out of it and bummed about the Elizabethan style collar she is in suprisingly good shape. I am sad that her lines are all crooked and I will miss her beautiful natural black eyeliner but I am ever so grateful I will not be missing her. I am...
Thank you so much for your support. I think at this point I opted not to do it. I felt like I should because it's only a 50 dollar difference and they offer it but I couldn't find enough info on it. I just wonder if she bumps it or what happens in the long run if they have any research on it...
So.......I went to the specialty vet for an enucleation this morning and was caught off gaurd by the fact that they were going to automatically put a prosthetic eye in the void before they sew it up. Does anyone have experience with this? the vet is going to call me before surgery but I don't...

Did Silly have her regular vet do it or a specialist? Of course, I have regrets already. I feel like her regular vet cared more so she would have done a better job plus it would have been so much cheaper which I was too stressed too consider. basically 850$ compared to 1400$. I feel so neurotic...

So, I'm thinking of taking Chupie into her regular vet tomorrow with the intention of a meeting before hand to address some of these questions you have shed some light on. At least I know this vet is open to a conversation and will listen to what I have to fears about. She actually called...
So this is what I'm worried about. If the tumor is Melonoma then can't two hours two weeks or two days make a difference because it doesn't seem to matter how fast the tumor is growing but whether or not it is sluffing off cells into the blood stream.
this disease is enigmatic. We know that an...
Thanks for the input!
So now after I've been researching and talking to the staff ( very difficult to get a tech at the specialist to talk to me though) The main difference in the operation is the Specialist used propofol (sp?) and the regular vet uses ketamine. The blood work came back ok...
I have been concerned with a freckle in my cat's eye. It grew quite large but her vet told me not to be concerned that it was age spots. I never felt comfortable with that but did not know there were optical vet specialists or I would have consulted one. Fast forward to a year later and my cat...
