Thanks everyone!. I am feeling sick about it already. But it doesnt take alot for me to get nervous. ( anxiety kicking in) lol. 👍
 
I think our scariest surgery was Theo's neutering as it was our first op and it was elective surgery on a healthy little chap. Blodwen's teeth and Tallulah's abscess I just trusted the vet when she said that even though they seemed ok they could go downhill fast and better to operate while they seemed well. Doesnt make it any less terrifying but Dot needs this op! Feeling for you with the sleepless night and nervous vomiting and anxiety overload ahead, its a normal reaction because you love her, fingers and paws crossed she will be home this time tomorrow and doing ok and it will all be over except the syringe feeding and loxicom x

I agree on the nuetering nerves. Because it isnt actually needed for life and death situation. The guilt is high. I actually sleep well when nervous or scared. Weird arnt i haha
 
Hope everything goes well for gorgeous Dot tomorrow :) Try not to worry too much (coming from me, the worried wreck waiting to hear about Pedro’s eye removal!) x

Was supposed to say eye not eve! They’re ok thanks, Ped out being a nutter now :) will keep checking tomoz for news x
 
Hey i just realised i still have zantac, emeprid and cystapride👍. Still in date and kept in a cool dark place. One of them helps the gut keep working
 
Well Dot and Bernie are in the vets. Bernie has stayed with her. The odds are 1 in 300 of losing a sow to a spay at my vets.But thats without Dots complications.

Hopefully you won’t even need them and she gets munching straight away :) especially as her man’s by her side and he’s not allowed all the food! :)
Hope it all goes brilliantly, the slightly damp One Eyed Monster said good luck Dot! And both the piggies as both had ops with him too :) xx
 
Bernie is simply the toughest most confident animal i have ever had. He licked the vets finger when she was checking Dots teeth, thinking Dot was being fed and he was being left out, then returns to the carrier eating hay 😐
 
Shes being operated on at around 12:15. So after then is when il start pooing a brick
 
O i forgot to mention dot is having her uterus removed and spay ( ovaries removed?) I should know this but i couldnt take much in
 
The bloody council have just chopped all the grass supply away, a big part of my recovery plan 😠😠😠😠. Why!?

And i have a suspected puncture on my car. So had to drive with a 3/4 flat tyre to the vets.

The beasts did it to me too, never come and deal with the garden but chopped it all, along with the bushes with berries the birds eat, then the idiot neighbour let the dog pee and poo all over it! My neighbour lets me pinch hers as one of the fence panels is broken next door!

Sorry, it always happens on those days you’re bloody stressed! Xx

They normally remove ovaries and womb during a spay, they’re not needed anymore to release eggs so it’s all removed. Why spays are a bit of a bigger op for girls than neutering boys x

Cheers, il look out for yellow grass hot spots, thats normally an indicator. I pumped my tyres up at a bp earlier, and a bird have done a wet poo on the airline, so when i slid it all out it smeared down my hand and arm😠. You gotta laugh. I didnt warn the next guy lol, he can share it

Er lovely, lucky bloke!
Years ago I went and got my hair done all nice at a posh hairdressers, spent hours getting it straightened (normally a big curly mess!), left and walked 100metres before a pigeon christened it! I wasn’t too happy! :td:
