Magee is spending the night at the clinic because he was neutered late today and is still sleepy. He didn't get his much anticipated facelift and eye job because his face is just too swollen for the vet to work on. He'll come home and continue with his regimen of antibiotics and cleaning, and we hope to have it under control soon.
Poor guy - I'm so anxious for him to get his surgery so he's more comfortable, but I certainly understand why the vet wasn't inclined to do anything further with him today. By all reports, he was the MOST excellent patient, happily interacting with everyone, despite being poked and prodded and thoroughly examined.
It's hard to tell his age because it's tough to get a good look at his teeth, with all the swelling. Based on his energy and activity level, I was guessing 3, but Dr. Leal said he's at least 4. Oh well. Once he has his eye lift, he'll look like a puppy!
He'll post himself tomorrow, when he's back home and feeling up to it. He's very dramatic, so I'll probably have to make him chicken soup and wrap him up in a robe......
From Tank to Magee. Pay attention to the Vets instructions and cooperate with your FM. Things will go very smooth, you'll get lots of attention and junk food. Then your FM will find you a great new family for you to adopt. Call me if you need a friend and we'll chat.
