Goodness Jenny! It never rains, does it! I'm glad, though, that you were able to get Wellington the attention he needed -- sooner than might have been the case, had he not had the run-in with the paint brush. I hope his recovery is quick. Sending lots of vibes and prayers for him, and for you.
Sending vibes and prayers for you and Wellington. But it does sound like some unseen force was actually looking out for Wellington and I hope will continue to.
No, I didn't get much sleep, but I had four cats to comfortme. Biscotte didn't seem to realise Wellington wasn't there - she cuddled up to Persil. But I went at 8 AM to the vet, and picked him up. The vet said it was a very small calcium stone, and was easy to remove once he was asleep and dilated. So he has avoided real surgery, thank goodness. He is on antibiotics and dilating tablets for ten days. The vet does not think there is a need to change his diet yet, but I think I will anyway. He prefers wet food, and I bought two boxes of high protein food last time I was inthe UK. It was to try it out, and they all seem to like it, so next time I go I will buy three months' worth! I will probably have to order it from Pets at Home,a s they are unlikely to have that much in stock. You can't get it here, everyone here feeds dry food and Friskies or Whiskas wet as a treat.
He was glad to be home, and I have him separate from the others, as he is not to eat till tonight. He went straight to a water bowl though, and took a long drink, which is good. It was all a warning, and I will take preventative measures to avois any problems int he future. He has enough to deal with, with his asthma. Thankyou all for your concern.
That was quite the ordeal for Wellington. It sounds that he will be ok though.
I hope that you are feeling more relieved today and can relax a bit yourself.
Poor Wellington! That paint was definitely a blessing in disguise. The poor boy was probably not feeling well to begin with and wasn't showing any symptoms at the time.
I'm so glad that he is home and that it wasn't a really serious thing. What an ordeal for the poor boy.
Goodness, Jenny, what a couple of days! I'm so glad Wellington is doing better after his surgery. Maybe he ran into that brush on purpose, who knows? Hugs from Colorado.
