Hi Mary_NH. I was going through the posts trying to find out what happened to her. I did find it. Good thing it wasn't cancer. I hope she feels better soon. Is she on pain meds? It looks so painful! Poor girl. Sad

So Mary it has been awhile I was wondering how Catnip is doing since her surgery and nasty staples.....

sorry I've been quiet. Have been sick with a nasty head cold.
Nice way to spend a long weekend Rolling Eyes

laid on the sofa like a swamp pig....getting better. Only up side is when I called work today my boss told me to stay home. She's going on a cruise next week and she doesn't want to catch this.
Catnip had her staples out today....she has done very well. I've never witnessed staples coming out and it's much easier than stitches. They just pop right out. No "drag" on the skin at all.
Her incision looks really good and the fur is starting to come back in.
I'm glad rescue did this for her. Now to find her a home!!! i'm getting attached

Sorry to hear that your sick that doesn't sound like a fun way to spend the weekend!!! At least your boss is cool with it can also understand not wanting a cold right before vacation.

Glad to hear that Catnip is healed up well!! Yes staples come out really easy hard to believe being that they are staples.... It is very cool of the rescue to help her out and I would have a hard time fostering I get attached way too easily!!!!
