The vets office just called and said that when they opened up Miss Kitty she was full of pus!!
Palamatra??(sp?) Can someone please fill me in on this? I have never heard of this!!
I feel so bad for not knowing!!!
I guess that would be it...I couldnt remember what she called it,lol...Im a dork like that....but still I feel bad for Miss Kitty.Originally Posted by GingersMom
Is it this?
That's what Penny got, requiring an immediate spay, which is why I am now fortunate enough to be adopting her.
It's not that you're a bad Meowmy - there is nothing that can prevent this as far as they know.
Thats why I took her to the vet in the first place......Originally Posted by trixie23
Did she have to have her uterus and ovaries removed...as suggested in the link posted above? If not are you going to spay her?

Nope, not yet. I will go get her later today....thanks for askingOriginally Posted by Bella713
Awwww Monica, how could you have known...is Miss Kitty home now?
