A worrying weekend ahead.

Sending every good wish for a good recovery!

He's home and not the happiest bunny (not surprising as he's a cat). Pretty wobbly and confused. Due back on Thursday at 9am. I was a bit surprised that he wasn't given any antibiotics. Maybe another big bill for those?!
We were quite happy to pay whatever it would cost but were quite taken aback at the commercially minded vet's attitude. I suppose it makes me grateful for the nhs. Imagine having to agree and pay in advance for any treatment.

Yes, I have to pay but where in the NHS can you ring at 8.30pm get an appointment within the hour with a doctor of your choice, have a blood test and the results phoned through to you within 6 hours? That’s my experience today re my dog.

Hope Baz feels better soon Jane ??

Good to hear Bas has come through ok Jane10. Get those antibiotics!

Baz. ..... oops

We're not due back at the vets till Thursday. I just hope he manages to keep the wound clean without irritating it by licking. He's still very agitated and confused poor thing.

So pleased to hear you have him home Jane. He will settle after a good nights sleep I am sure. Love to Baz - you are doing well.

All good wishes to Baz for a full recovery.

What a relief! I was almost afraid to come to this thread tonight, so pleased that Baz came through the op alright, fingers crossed now for good test results.

Thanks all. He's still very unsettled, following me about. I wish he'd settle down and sleep. He usually sleeps 18+ hours a day but not today apparently!

If it's anything like human anaesthetic Jane10 he won't be able to sleep - both times I have had procedures I have been awake until 3am the next morning at least - I think they overdo it with the 'antidote' side of anaesthetics now - I was loudly singing whilst coming round from one of them ?

Oh Beau! What a treat you must have been for the nurses.
He must have had a good night. He was glad to see me this morning. He's now curled up beside me on the sofa.

So to hear he is settled now Jane. Keep it up Baz you are doing well, brave boy x

glad

Missed this thread. So glad he seems to have turned the corner Jane. Eight is no age for a cat so he should be pretty resilient and in his prime. Fingers crossed that the results are good.

Glad to hear the good news. hope the test results will be good too. Happy New Year, Baz and Jane!

I was interested in the likelihood of the antidote to the anaesthetic keeping poor Baz buzzing yesterday. He's conked out just now. First time he's seemed relaxed since we picked him up yesterday.

I hope Baz settles down after his ordeal and results are good on Thursday. Pets are such a major part of the family.

I am reading your updates with my heart in my mouth. Fingers crossed for Baz

Fingers crossed for good results for Baz from me too and glad to hear he's finally zonked. My two are 11 and 21 - Baz is a spring chicken Jane10 ?

Vet just phoned. It's been a Trichoblastoma - a benign tumour! He's OK. Zippity do da! Phew.
I've spoken to Baz about it and he's promised not to do it again! Am so happy.

Wonderful news Jane10, x

Such good news Jane. Love to Baz x

Brilliant news Jane - give Baz a pat!

Excellent news Baz &Jane you can have a happy New Year now.
