nerrrrrddssssss
in the future...make sure to feed less than the normal amount after anesthetic procedure. risk of vomiting is higher and therefore there is an aspiration riskHey all,
Thank you ALL for your support. Seriously, you guys rock and I appreciate everyone who took the time to answer my questions or send me a message.
My cat made it through the surgery and is now in recovery. Still under the influence of anesthesia, he's behaving like a drunk cat . To reward him for his awesome behavior with the Vet, I gave him an extra helping of his favorite wet food, which he promptly proceeded to gobble down incase I changed my mind.
I'm very grateful that we got it done since this means he'll be out of pain that he had been suffering from before.
Best wishes to all of you,
With the greatest respect,

i tell my clients 1/4-1/2 the amount of what they usually eat. I wouldn't have increased the wet if it were meYou're absolutely right- I should have clarified- he usually gets wet AND dry food daily. Dry food is a much larger portion of his diet. Since his dry food was completely cut off (per Vet instructions), I increased his wet food both as a reward to him and to ensure that he got some of the energy he'd be missing from less dry food. Does that make sense? Overall, his food intake was less than the daily amount.

Feral druids are alwaysa solid optionOP as hell.
Also, try out outlaw rogues- I LOVE mine. He's a gnome so he gets extra haste and energy.
Fixed that for you.
So, would you remove the VET in the middle of the procedure if you didn't like how things were going? Where I the vet, I would want to be very sure of you and your reactions.Thank you for your response.
I have the time to wait. No worries.
How? This is the first time my pet has gotten a major surgical procedure, I have heard horror stories of Vets committing abuse, and I just want to ensure that doesn't happen to my pet who is dependent on me.
And it's within my rights, as my pet's guardian, to remove that Vet as my pet's official Vet and find one who will let me watch. If I can't find one locally, I'll pay extra to fly my pet to a hospital in a different state where they allow it (I know certain vets allow it).
