Good Morning SharLee and Finnigen:
 
I am so happy that little Finnigen's surgery went so well and it sounds like his recovery is going to go just as well.  I am wondering if because it was his front paw it would have done no good to use an e-collar and no bandage because he could have still licked it?  That is great that he can go straight into the play pen.  I wonder how come Willow is stuck in a cat carrier for six weeks?  She can go into her play pen occassionaly, but for the most part the doctor only wants her to stand up turn around and lay back down.  She can put weight on it . . . but absolutely no walking and he said the play pen was too much room for the time being.   
It sounds like Finnigen is going to do very well . . . and as far as eating goes . . . who could resist a scrumptous meal like that?  Good luck to you guys and Willow and I send many hugs and kisses to Finnigen for a speedy recovery.  Please keep us updated on his condition.  I am in Minnesota . . . what part of Canada are you in? 
Love Pegi and Willow
