Ms. Stella is out of surgery minus what was left of her middle toe.
Dr. said they did lazer treatment on her toe (no idea what that means) and there was no bone infection.
Her footie is wrapped and she can come home tonight by 6pm.
I am so relieved the surgery is over and she can come home. She will require more trips to the vet for bandage changes but I'm happier with that than thinking she has to wait ten days before she gets seen again only to find if something else is wrong. She goes back this Friday.
I know she's a tough ol kitty but I do worry.
I may be holding an art auction to help defray the costs that have just hit the $1000 mark but right now I'm a bit overwhelmed and just want her home. Will update more this eve. if possible but certianly by tomorrow She will most certainly have something to say Cod love her!
THANK YOU ALL FOR BEING SO CARING AND SENDING PURRS & NOSE TAPS!
It's so comforting to read your kind words during all this, I don't feel so alone.
P.S.
Clyde is still in bathroom confinement. He is simply a darling little bruiser of a mancat and I can't wait to post more about him and his story. Ollie knows there's another cat here but has no idea it's meant really to torment be a buddy for him. Ollie has been acting out since he doesn't have Ms. Stella's firm paw giving him a whap every now and again. I'm sure he misses his brother and since he has no one to roughhouse with he's pretty frustrated; that's why we decided (after months of deliberation) to get him a buddy. Clyde was adopted from an event at Petco.
We are so thankful for your update and knowing Miss Stella is out of surgery and will be on her way home very soon. Now healing begins for REAL!!!

We appreciate the update, continue to send purrs for her recovery. We hope that the laser surgery means a speedier healing time, compared to "regular" surgery, but like you, we're not quite sure what it means, at least in this instance.

I learned about Ms. Stella from Katie Isabella. We hope Ms. Stella recovers quickly...we are all sending good vibes and the kitties (Gracie & Millie) are sending purrs.
ReplyDeleteRumbly purrs from all of us...even Mommy is trying a purr!
ReplyDelete(We have some fun things to put in your auction if you decide to hold one, also, you could put a chip in widget up.)
So happy Ms. Stella came thru everything OK. Three cheers for Ye Olde Grizzled Broad!
We're so glad to hear Ms. Stella's surgery is over and all went well. Now let's hope she heals quickly!
ReplyDeleteWe are so glad the surgery went well and stella is coming home. We're sending our best purrs for a speedy recovery :-)
ReplyDeleteKatie Isabella sent us over. Poor Ms Stella! Laser surgery is the best as its fast, neat and less traumatic than the old fashioned way. But the poor girl, will her balance be ok once she's healed? We're purring for her - and for you who must be a nervous wreck over this.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad to hear that Stella's surgery is over and that she can come home! Still sending lots of purrs her way to ensure smooth healing.
ReplyDeleteThank COD she is home again with her Mommy. Poor sweetie--but HURRAY for no bone infection! Also, hurray for regular checking so nothing can get out of control. She's SUCH a good girl! You've had a lot of hard things this year--may this be the LAST one! Can't wait to hear more about the New Kid. ;-)
ReplyDeleteSo glad to hear Miss Stella is doing good and is on the road of recovery :) We love hearing a good news!
