Took Miss Kitty in for her follow-up visit. The surgeon was happy with her healing progress so she's free from the dreaded cone/lampshade/elizabethan collar. So that's a good thing.

The other good thing is that the visit was already included in the massive bill I paid last week.

The not so good thing is how vague the surgeon was about everything. Two of the masses he removed were actually cancerous, so he wants us to make an appointment with an oncologist. This being the baddest-ass animal hospital in the city, they have a whole separate oncology department. It's one of their specialties.

I'll do it, of course, but I'm starting to think about just how far I'm willing to go. We already decided there's no way we're putting this cat through chemotherapy. My lady's father went through that a few years ago and said he would rather die than do it again.

If a reasonable human being who understands what's happening feels that way, imagine how horrific it would be for a wee animal.

But for now I'm just happy Kitty can clean her own ass again.

I'll put some pics up soon.

quilty:
Have you read much of her (Barry's) other stuff?

I couldn't be more excited that you're a librarian. When I die, I think I will go to the L.A. Central Library, if I work hard to deserve it.

It is such a huge gift to own a pet and have their lives intrusted to you.
When I made the decision to do what I had to do with my cat I felt horrible about it and still do.
But, I am glad he is no longer suffering.
I did have to start thinking about things from the moment I saw how sick he was and start assessing the situation right the as you are now.
It is a very difficult time and I wish you the best of luck as I know you will make the right decision.

Thank you for the well wishes and support. wink
