Some little purrs for Bandit

Purrs for Bandit to be suffering from nothing more than post operative
discomfort. Oreo tapered off of her eating for a few days after her
spay, but was also just as active. (I just love it when TED says
to keep 'em quiet.....HAH! ) After about three or four days, she
was pretty much back to her normal pattern.

Healing purrs and good thoughts for Bandit, and good thoughts for
Hugh for taking her in!

Hi all

It's probably nothing to worry about but...

Some of you may remember Bandit, last October Hugh was walking home at
Snipped for server
She doesn't have a fever. Vet has given her an antibiotic shot, some
other shot and some brown paste stuff which judging by the performance
getting her to eat it, didn't taste nice! Then told Mark to take her
home but if she hasn't pooped by Tuesday or she gets worse to bring
her back.

She is running about like a maniac and ambushing Hugh's other cats so
we hope it's not serious

But if there's a spare purr or if anyone knows what it might be?

stitching had come undone inside her. The first vet had used expired
thread to sew her up inside and the end had let go!

She had another surgery, to correct the hernia and get rid of dead
tissue.

But she still wouldn't poo. Her bowels were slow to get started and
she would get plugged up and couldn't force the dried stuff to get
moving. She had two enemas.

She was eating, though, and so we fed her this slop that was one half
wet cat food and one half pumpkin pie filling. The fibre in the
pumpkin made her go. That was the end of the problem, though she was
suspicious of wet cat food for years afterwards.

Well, no wonder she's the Queen of Darkness! I would be if that had happened
to me. Did you manage to get any settlement from the first vet? The least
they could've done was pay for the second surgery...

peed since Thursday morning but she is very discreet about that sort
of thing and when the vet examined her. she had an empty bladder so
presumably she's been using the litter box when no-one was looking or

Poor Bandit - I hope it's nothing serious! Highly fibrous purrs heading
her way.

Purrs for Bandit to feel better, and get back on her food.

'nothing').

Hi Lesley
First of all major purrs and prayers coming your way from us, for Bandit.
I know about the nasty tasting stuff in the tube the v*t gave you. Mosey
got some of that. Was it for furballs? Mosey and his longhair sister
Sqweex really hated the stuff. It's called Laxatone, and it's tuna
flavored. I tried giving it to him 'once, I just smeared some of his paw so
he could lick it off, and what did the little stinker do? He peed on the
bottom sheet on my side of the bed at 3 am.
Then the next day, he pooped 'outside' his box. Now, he's 'constipated'
again and I may have to give him some with the syringy thingy TED gave me.
IDK.
Anyway, again, major purrs and prayers for Bandit. Poor baby.
Give him a gentle kiss on the top of his head from us
Hug

Nocturne stopped pooping, peeing and eating after her spay. We took
her to a different vet and they found she had a hernia...the inside
stitching had come undone inside her. The first vet had used expired
thread to sew her up inside and the end had let go!

Oh H*ll no! that is w-r-o-n-g. Bad TED!!

She had another surgery, to correct the hernia and get rid of dead
tissue.

But she still wouldn't poo. Her bowels were slow to get started and
she would get plugged up and couldn't force the dried stuff to get
moving. She had two enemas.

Poor baby

She was eating, though, and so we fed her this slop that was one half
wet cat food and one half pumpkin pie filling. The fibre in the
pumpkin made her go. That was the end of the problem, though she was
suspicious of wet cat food for years afterwards.

Pumpkin pie filling eh? Now there's something I hadn't heard of.
Hmm, I could get a ready made pumpkin pie from the bakery (on sale for
2.99), and offer Mosey some off my spoon, when I finish. If he's hesitent
about it, I'll put a small amount on his nose, he'll lick it off and either
go YUM or glare at me and huff off. Thanks for the idea And the fiber in
the pie filling is good for us too

Well, no wonder she's the Queen of Darkness! I would be if that had
happened
to me. Did you manage to get any settlement from the first vet? The least
they could've done was pay for the second surgery...

No kidding, Joyce. That is just NOT right IMO. Poor Bandit, having to go
all thru that
