We had our surgery day yesterday. A very busy morning and early afternoon. The boys that were neutered were: Gent, Willard, Basil, Pushkins and Pushkiss. Joe Bob was not neutered--we decided he needed a little growing time and to be healthier. The girls that were spayed were: Pania and Keena. We also did 3 extra surgeries--2 female cats for our volunteer's and a dog for Lynnette. All surgeries went just fine--no problems at all and the recoveries were fairly quick. We will keep a check on Pania's eyes. The one eye seems to be a bit swollen, more so than a few weeks ago.
We also did many physicals.
Emaline: good, keep on doing what we're doing.
Findlay: good, very healthy
Dove: keep up with the antibiotics and soreness meds, appears to have healthy tissue around the "concerned area" on the toes. Will continue our treatment of soaks and watching this area.
Bondi: same as before, kidney issues still persist, but looking good
County: good, may have an upper canine tooth that might need pulled, may do a dental x-ray at some point
Zelda: good, her front shoulders/elbows still (and always will be) shows signs of "stress" from her initial injury
Cutie: good, other than the "leftovers" of her cold and having a slight ear infection. Cleaned her ear, applied ointment and will continue to do so for a few days.
FiFi: good, ready for adoption (12/21!)
Dahnae: good, very healthy
Jaina: good, no signs of any heart disease, other than a slight murmur now!!
Paddy Cake: good, very healthy
Paddy Purr: good, but has a 3/6 heart murmur. Probably will never cause a problem, but we'll keep an eye on this.
Frith: good, very healthy. Ready for adoption (Monday)!
Engelina: we have a concern about that front leg of hers. As she is becoming bigger and weighing more, that "crooked" leg of hers is definitely causing a problem. We are putting her on a HOLD for right now and will reevaluate that leg later. It's now been determined that it's her elbow that is the source of soreness. This is a birth defect and something that we can't correct by external means (casts, etc.) So, we'll watch her also, as always!
