My baby Molly is getting spayed tomorrow and I am so worried about her. I know the procedure is done so many times but she is so small and so precious to us. You see she is about 9 months old but because she was so poorly when we rescued her she is only about 6 months on the growth chart. And she is so small and I mean really small but vet said she is healthy and its just because her growth spurt was effected because of when she was a little baby.

I know I shouldn't worry but I can't help it. She has no idea what is going on but I bet if she did she wont be happy.

Its weird but I never thought I would be taking my baby to get spayed this soon as we wanted her to have one litter and then we were going to spray her. But the choice was taken out of our hands as we are getting a new ragdoll kitty soon and the thing is he is male. We were looking for a female so it wont be a problem but its so hard to find a ragdoll in the UK and when we found a little boy we just had to say yes.

I know a lot of people are against breeding as I posted about Molly before and asking whether she should be sprayed because of our new little boy. And the response was surprising and upsetting so I don't like to talk about it much.

I know there will be some good things that will come of molly being spayed but I am still a little sad as I was so looking forward to her being a mommy when she was a little older. But oh well, this is for her health and plus she is way to young to have babies yet.

I am going to hate leaving her at the vets tomorrow and coming home without her. Ever since we rescued her she has never been apart from me. She has depended on me for everything and now i have to leave my baby for a whole day. I hate to think what she is going to be thinking. I am also so worried about Eviecat, they are so close and I wonder how Eviecat will react with Molly not being around. They really are very close and Eviecat is like a big sister to her. I don't want Eviecat to think she is dead or something....

You see when we moved our hamster to a different room where Eviecat and Molly wouldn't see her because they were getting more and more curious and it was to easy for them to get her. Eviecat was so sad and so confused, it took her a while to realize she was gone and she was so sad almost like she was grieving. In the end I took her to the hamster to show her she was still alive...but its not going to be that easy when Molly as she is at the vet.

Well wish me luck, i am sure it will be fine but as a mommy I can't help but worry.

Ps> Sorry if I have put this in the wrong place but I wasn't sure where it was meant to go.

Don't worry!!!!! The vet knows what she's doing!!!
When Limerick went to get snipped, I was a nervous reck!!!!! I got him done at my sister's school, Wilson College. They have a cery good Vech Tech program. I called my sister everyday twice a day. Annoyed the hell out of her. She told the doctor in charge that I was being a nervous parent. I cryed when I had to leave him. But he's fine happy and healthy.
We all know exactly how you feel. Don't worry it will all be fine!!!!

Loving my beautiful baby girl
You and Molly are both in my prayers, Eva! Your little girl is going to sail right through this and be back at home in her Mummy's arms in no time at all!
We're right her beside you!

She will be fine. Make sure you keep us up to date and make sure she does not fool around with the stiches so she won't get the incission opened before time.

Is she back yet? Let us know, do!

You'll probably find she's a bit sleepy when she does come home. Don't worry, she will know what she needs to do to get over it. Just be there for cuddles etc. when she wants them (I am sure you will be doing that anyway!)

Hope all's well.
