The big day is scheduled... Buster is set to get neutered/have his rear dew claws removed on May 23rd. My boyfriend and I are taking vacation from work that week because we want/need to be with him 24/7 while he's healing. We have to drop him off Monday (the 23rd) morning between 9:00am and 9:30am, he'll stay over night and we'll pick him up the following morning between 10:00am and 10:30am. I am super nervous for my little guy

I know it's very routine and needs to be done but the thought of him having surgery freaks me out... PLUS he's staying over night which is going to suck bc we haven't gone a night without him since we got him in December...The vet is prob going to think I'm some crazy lady.. I mean I was upset when we got him groomed for the first time and the groomer took him away from me and we had to leave him for a few hours lol! Just counting down the days until my little boy's surgery and hoping for a speedy recovery when all is said and done! .. Thanks for listening to my nervous ramblings YT!

The DBF thinks I worry too much

.. but I know you guys understand

Just called the vet with that concern... She said every animal stays there overnight after a surgery, that there is staff there and the post-op animals are kept in a completely different place then the sick animals.. I just drilled her with questions haha... thanks for bringing that up... I didn't even think to make sure there would be staff there.. I just kind of assumed there would be.

Best of luck to you and Buster. He will do just fine and be home with you two before you know it.

Jed just had his surgery this past Friday. Went in at 11:00, I picked him up at 4:15 the same day. I was very nervous too but everything seems to have turned out just fine. He goes back Saturday to have his stiches removed.
