UPDATE: Grumpy Buster
Mark Edwards wrote:
Buster has survived his experience, but he is definitely grumpy. They lanced and drained his leg, and neutered him. His leg is still draining, and the vet said they want itto continue to drain. So his poor leg is sore and seeping for now. I've got a big bottle of antibiotic to squirt into his mouth twice a day, and they want to see him again Monday evening (which will be a close call, depending on traffic between Dallas and Arlington). When I brought Buster home, I had put a cushion in the bottom of a laundry basket for his comfort. He was feeling better enough to sit up and look over the top of the basket. In fact, he tried to jump out and run away (POOR Buster!) when I got to the door. I got him inside, and he is laying down, loking miserable, at the front door, atop the cushion. He still feels very warm (he did have a temp of 105 degrees at the vet), but not quite as warm. I lie down next to him now and then and give him "poor baby" skritches and pets. He looks even more miserable than the picture on my website: http://home.comcast.net/~Mark-Edward...usterClose.jpg Little Feet is purring for him, from a distance of about five feet. Dulce Mae has decided that she doesn't want whatever special treatment Buster got, after all. Hugs and Purrs, Mark Awwww.... poor Buster! He'll be all better in a day or two. Keep babying him and he'll perk up. Jill |

Awwwww, poor Buster! Poor little guy must feel like crud between the leg
injury and the recent surgery. The good news is, at least he should be recovered from the surgery in no time. Here's hoping that his leg abscess clears up equally soon. Donna P.S. That "OHHHH, WOE IS MEEEEE!" expression in that photo is priceless! ;o) |

Poor Buster, no wonder he is feeling sorry for himself! And lots of purrs
for you to be able to give him the antibiotics and to make the vet visit, Mark. Lots of purrs and best wishes for you both, -- Polonca & Soncek "Mark Edwards" wrote in message ...
