Wonderful news! Now he gets to be home!! Heal well Angus!

Awesome! I am sure he will settle down once he is home! Thanks for the update!

Thank you so much . He is in a lot of pain but I called the Vet and she said it takes awhile for the pain meds to work .. He should be feeling better in the morning .. He is still quite restless because it hurts to lie down .. Poor baby ..

He should not be in pain. Your vet should have given him an injection immediately after the surgery.

What did she give him for pain at home?

They gave him an injection of Rimadyl at the vet and sent me home with Tramedol .. I called her earlier and she told me to increase the dosage . He is laying down now so I think it is working ..

Oh that's good! Glad to hear he is more comfortable!! Tramadol is a good med for them.

They gave Sasha tramadol for her hip surgery and also to Max when he hurt his paw. It seemed to work well with both of them with no side effects.

Oh, I am sure he will. Also, keep in mind that the anesthesia tends to make them restless and they can act a bit strange. He might whimper and have some shaking from it.

I remember when I brought Cookie back from her spay. She looked so pathetic just standing with her head down, it took about a half hour before she laid down.

Happy to hear surgery went well and Angus is home. Prayers for a speedy and full recovery.
