The good news in all this is that it is something treatable, and a
diagnosis *was* found, and I sure have been the route in the past
where a diagnosis can't be easily found, and the poor cat has test
after test to find it.

Yes, that is good news, even though she's hating the 'treatment'.
Thank you all who sent purrs for my baby. She's going to be needing
more healing purrs.

More purrs on the way for her to tolerate the treatment well and be
back to 100% once it's over.

around the cage and banging the cone all over the place for the
last couple of hours. I covered the cage to keep it dark, and she
figured out to drink water with that damned cone on her head,
thankfully, but eating is going to be rough. |sigh again!!|


I speak from personal experience, with a kind of
cyst cats probably don't get. In my case, for technical reasons,
there was no good way to use a local anesthetic, and (hiss-spit)
the physician didn't give me some morphine first. Nevertheless,
once he cut into me, without warning, the pain of the cyst
itself almost immediately went away.

Ouch, Howard! I'm glad you got some relief from that. Sounds
horrible!

RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!! !!!RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!
Get well soon, Scarlett! Be as patient as you can with that e-collar.
It's a nuisance, and I know you're very uncomfortable with that drain
in you, but your meowmie really IS doing this because she loves you,
incomprehensible as that may seem to you. If you're a good girl, the
ordeal will be over by Saturday, poor dear.

PPRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR, for you, too, Cheryl. Hope all goes well
between now and Saturday. I'm glad the problem was discovered, and that
it's no worse than it is. But I'm sure it feels like quite enough, to
you and to Scarlett!
