Remi is at Dogter Snips right now

[RoxyJosMom]

We just dropped Remi off to get fixed(and he's not even broken), microchipped and baby teeth out. He was NOT happy at all. He remember's going last time, even tho it was just a check-up and shots. He screamed at the top of his lungs before the Vet even touched him. Everyone was cracking up. But I misunderstood the time period and he will be staying 2 nights. We can't get him until Wed. AM. At least my cousin works there and she will spoil him big time. Roxy was looking all over for him when we brought his blankie he got from Millie back with us because they were afraid it would get lost. He did get to keep his little turtle, tho. I miss him already - he is constantly snuggling with me. It was a hard decision to make, considering his pedigree, but I know it will be better for him and that is my main concern.
Please keep him in your prayers. He has never been alone in his life. He sleeps curled up next to me every nite.

Awwww I feel your pain. I cried like a baby when I took chewy. Sadie get done in one month and I tear up just thinking about it.

Chewy goes to get teeth cleaned this wed.

Hey Wemi, dis iz Gizmo! Dude, this isn't so bad. At least at my vet, the techs are really nice and like to pet me. There was also this really cute poodle there.

Then, if you play your cards right...look all pitiful when you come home. Your mommy will give you LOTS of good stuff to eat and she will let me stay on her lap most of a day. If you are really lucky, you will get a new toy too!

Make sure your mommy gets an extra pain pill or two when she brings you home just in case, and some soft canned food that we don't usually get to eat!

We neutered boys need to stick together! Take it easy dude.

Aww, he should be just fine.

I don't know why in the world they would keep him for two nights though (maybe one if that). When Ellie was spayed and had a liver biopsy she didn't even stay one night. She came home about 4 and a half hours after surgery and did fine...

[RoxyJosMom]

Thanks - Roxy didn't get any pain meds when she was done - she did great. I know he'll be fine, I just didn't expect he'd be gone 2 nites. Already got his new toy waiting for him (got one for Roxy, too, 'cause she steals everything) - probably have to get something else, too.

That was probably my misunderstanding. They said bring him in at nite and they would fast him. They don't charge for that nite. I thought the surgery was the following morning but it's in the afternoon. He has to stay the nite. Roxy only stayed one nite. I thought it was strange, too, but I am not an argueing person so I just went with it. It'll be over soon and he'll be home in no time .

LOL...you are nicer than me.
When it comes to Ellie, I am an arguing person.
I would have a fit if they tried to keep her just to fast her.

Remi is a neuter - he's my little fru-fru boy . I can't imagine his high pitched cry getting any higher. I thought it was strange, but I misunderstood when they said bring him in the night before, I thought he would be coming home the next afternoon. They were just offering to let him fast there instead of at home. Since I have to be to work at 6:30 am, it worked out better for me. I didn't know the surgery wasn't until the next afternoon. I still don't know why he has to stay all nite after the surgery, but that's what they want. They did a great job with Roxy, so I'll go with it.

[kwaymon]

Aww. Poor little baby cried I would have cried too! I take Tucker in next Monday to get him fixed. I'm worried too, but I know it will be for the best in long run.

[RoxyJosMom]

Just checked on Remi and he came thru with flying colors and is resting comfortably - minus a couple "thingies". I begged them to let me bring him home tonite but they said Nooooooooo. So, I have to wait till I get my lunch break tomorrow to get him. The good news is - he doesn't have to wear an E-collar. I can't imagine how much higher his cry can get - it's already ear-piercing .

[Ellie May]

Aww, glad he did well.
