They are going to call me after they are done the surgery.

Poor baby Diamond . . . .but at least you get to bring her home today I had asked my VET if I should be putting a band on Tiger to prevent him from chewing his stitches and he replied NO as he wants the wound aired and he said the stitches are done from the inside so there isn't anything to chew on . . . now is that the norm or what?!
