it IS called 'fur'-niture
I got my little guy snipped today. I was a nervous wreck all weekend about it, but the vet I took him to has done several chins (as well as GPs, hedgies, and other little critters) and Groo came through with no complications. I opted to pay an extra $56 to have them use the laser instead of the traditional scalpel and suture method. It cauterizes as it cuts, so there is less swelling, less pain, and less bleeding during surgery.
The goal (fingers crossed) is to have him living with Raven sometime early next year, they seem to like each other just fine through the cage bars, unlike Tala who tries to attack anyone who comes within smelling distance of her cage.
He's only been home for about 4 hours, but he was wide awake and alert when I picked him up. When he got home he did a few laps around his newly barren cage. He's been sleeping since. He peed and nibbled on some hay and a shreddie, so hopefully he'll continue to eat on his own. I'm going to be monitoring his water and pellet intake for the next couple of days just to be safe.
First time in the cat carrier:
Post-neuter. Swollen but still looking alright.
