Frankencat

What an emotional roller coaster we rode through the Holiday Season. Kitty came through surgery just fine only to develop an allergy to the stitches and an infection, which required antibiotics and "wound" drainage twice a day for a week. She actually put up with both processes very well but had definite time limits on our cleaning session with the peroxide. We had to wash her little face, scratch her itches, and clean the cone-collar often. She eventually figured out a way to get beyond the cone and lick part of her tummy. Thankfully, she did not pull out the stitches. Finally, today, she got an almost clean bill of health: stitches out and cone removed. But does she suffer from hyperthyroidism? Sigh!

Thank you to our many kitty-supporters! Your get well wishes and healing thoughts really helped!
