Post Op

I picked Snow up from the vet this morning. She is active and doing fine, but I am still concerned. First, here is a picture of what they removed. I won’t know the test results until next week.

The lump removed

Here are some pictures of snow and her scar, with both stitches and surgical staples.

Also, the admin there noted that last time snow was in she weighed 10 lbs. and this time she weighed just over 8 lbs. I thought the weight loss was due to a better diet I have them both on, but losing nearly 20% of her body weight is probably NOT a good sign. In any case, she does not seem to be in any pain and she is moving around and climbing steps and the whole shebang. I have been watching her and still need to give her two (2) doses of antibiotics plus use an antibiotic cream on the scar.

I hope everything proves to be OK, Snow is a good cat and should still have some few years left to her.
