yay for Jasper!
He is such a trooper. When I picked him up he looked so pathetic in his
carrier. He was clearly stoned from the anesthesia. The fur around his eyes was all matted down because they use some ointment during surgery to protect the eyes. And, he had bloody drool hanging from his mouth! WHat a sight! But a sight for sore eyes nonetheless. Got him home and figured he would want to sleep. NOPE. He took off re-exploring the house, bumping into everything, but not caring one bit. He was starving and went and stood right by where his food bowl would be. He ate, he pooped, it was great!  Seriously though, he seems to be doing reallywell and I know he'll be so glad to be rid of those gross, rotten teeth. I'm glad it is finally done. ALSO...the lump is reported to be a CYST. Nothing major!! Currently he is curled up on the couch getting pet by DH, purring and kneading his paws into the air. Love it! On a side note, the charges for the dental were even less than I had been quoted because since his teeth were so diseased, they came out pretty easily! I'm sorry his teeth were so awful, but it was a nice bonus to have the cost be less than I was even anticipating. That *never* happens!!! Thanks of course to this group. I have learned a lot about cats, including about their dental health. I probably would have been unlikely to do the dental without the information and coaxing from some of you. I really do appreciate it because I know it was the right and the best thing to do for him. Next up for health care? ME! Pam

Way to go, Pam and Jasper!
Glad he's home, and feeling well enough to eat. What a relief. Take care, Rhonda kitkatluna wrote: He is such a trooper.

And then you'll be on the couch being petted by your DH and kneading your paws in the air? ;-) Nice happy ending. Good for you. I'll be Jasper's *much* happier. Priscilla

Nice happy ending. Good for you. I'll be Jasper's *much* happier. Priscilla Yeah, he seems pretty happy to me and despite the fact that he had surgery just over 24 hours ago, he already seems more energetic to me. Maybe it's the drugs. LOL. Pam
