I did the same thing when I dropped Jackson off... I was holding his leash in my hand and harness, etc, and just started crying when I drove away, lol. We are sooo pitiful. Uni will come out perfect, I'm sure. I am sending good vibes your way!

I spoke with a vet tech and she said Uni is just waking up from surgery.

they said everything went great, BUT since she got done so late in the day, I cannot pick her up tonight, the Dr said no.

I don't know how I'm gonna sleep tonight.

thank you everyone for the well wishes, it's really nice to know you guys care about Uni.

Maximo · 11-17-2010, 04:24 PM

Yeah! Surgery is over, Uni is awake. My eyes were welling up reading your message about dropping her off this morning. Sorry she can't come home to you tonight. Looking forward to a report tomorrow morning, and pictures of her onesie.

ladyjane · 11-17-2010, 06:11 PM

Happy to hear that all went well for Uni!

BonBon · 11-18-2010, 05:30 AM

Yay! Give her some gentle welcome home huggins from us this morning.

JDS · 11-18-2010, 05:45 AM

I'm glad to hear surgery went well. I'm sorry you have to be away from your baby overnight. I wouldn't sleep either.

kjc · 11-18-2010, 05:46 AM

How can anyone not love Uni? So glad all went well... what a relief!

capt_noonie · 11-18-2010, 01:56 PM

She is doing surprisingly well. Not bothering with the stitches at all. She's sleeping on her bed in her "hammock". Her left ear was extremely matted though. It took me about 1 1/2 hours to get it all out. didn't loose too much hair. Really did take me a while to get her all cleaned up. Two days of her not being fussed over and brushed really caught up with her. The spot where they took out the growth, they shaved a pretty big spot, and the incision looks bigger than the spay incision! It was just a tiny dot! Anyway, she has a lot of ear hair that will cover that up, and once the bright blue stitches are out, I doubt anyone would notice.

I still don't have any pics yet, maybe tonight. lol she's dreaming right now.

So we get the biopsy results in a few days. I'm sure it's nothing. thanks again for everyone's well wishes, you guys are the best!

ETA: you know they didn't even shave her arm hair! I guess her hair was thin enough to see thru?

Maximo · 11-18-2010, 04:04 PM

I'm so happy for you that Uni is home and resting comfortably! Now you can relax and catch up on some sleep. Enjoy.

Neither Max nor Teddy had their arms shaved. My neighbor's little girl had it done for the IV. I don't know why some vets do it and others don't.

capt_noonie · 11-18-2010, 04:18 PM

Katie's arm was shaved, but then again, she was a cotton coat. She has a LOT of hair. Your boys look like silky coats right? Maybe they can just move the hair aside to get the vein?

Nancy1999 · 11-18-2010, 04:41 PM

Can't believe I missed this thread, I was wondering why you didn't have a spay thread. Glad everything went well, and hope she's feeling like her old self ASAP!

mimimomo · 11-18-2010, 05:39 PM

Sending Uni bunches of gentle get well kisses. Hope her biopsy goes well too.
Mimi didn't get her arm shaved either, but Momo did...he's got a lot of hair everywhere!

DvlshAngel985 · 11-18-2010, 05:56 PM

How odd.. Kaji's a super hairy soft coated werewolf. He didn't get shaved either.

Tinksmygirl · 11-18-2010, 06:05 PM

So glad Uni's surgery went fine.

I did not have to take the onesie completely off Tink when she went to the bathroom. I would just unsnap it and fold it back a little over her back. I can see where little boys would need to take it off.

capt_noonie · 11-18-2010, 07:14 PM

You can kind of see where her bump was removed. They shaved about a quarter size of hair off. they barely had to shave her belly, she is pretty hairless there. See how small the spay incision is? Crazy!

Wow, i have no idea why the picture is so huge when you click on it. Anyone else's do that too?
