Kitty Surgery
My 15 year old cat, Calvin (who prefers to be called The Moo), had surgery to remove a growth today. He is NOT a happy boy with the e-collar on. The incision is about as long as my index finger, but the growth was a little smaller than the size of a US quarter coin. He’s got to wear this collar for 10-14 days. Poor doodle! We get the biopsy results later in the week.
NOTE: The incision picture on the right is not for the squeamish!
In case you’re wondering, Moo is a 17.7 lb cat! He’s a mutt, but we think he’s got some Maine Coon and some Norwegian Forest Cat in him. When he stands on his hind legs, his paws can reach the kitchen counter!

Thanks for the sweet comments, everyone! He seems way better today. Keep your fingers crossed for the biopsy!
