Spike's Bitches 48: I Say, We Go Out There, and Kick a Little Demon Ass.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
The positive side to that is all the co workers I vented to were male and they all said P shouldn't have said it and was wrong. And it felt sincese from them, not like they were placating the irrational woman.
That's good, askye. Otherwise, I'm sure your rageometer would have been off the charts.
Hrm, Malachi seems to have a fluid-filled lump on his back, mostly between his shoulder blades. It feels like when the vet does subcutaneous fluids, but he hasn't been to the vet in awhile. Moves around to the touch (side to side, neck to back) and doesn't seem to hurt him at all to have it poked, prodded, pinched, or smooshed around. He's eating and acting totally normally. On a scale of "he's totally fine, go to bed then get up super early for surgery yourself" to "stay up all night at the emergency pet hospital", where does this rank?
Relatedly, I'm going in for surgery tomorrow morning to resect an adenoma from my liver. First on the boards at around 7am west coast time. ~ma welcome :)
surgery~ma for you Erin.
And tons of interview~ma for everyone that needs it!!
I hope the surgery is going well, Erin!
Surgery~ma, Erin!
Surgery~ma, and fluid~ma to Malachi! If it's not painful to the touch and he's eating and voiding normally, I'd let it go for a couple of days until after your own surgery. Maybe when you're recovered enough to talk on the phone, call the vet and describe it to get advice?
(Or even give one of us the vet's phone, since you already *have* described it pretty completely, and we can call this morning just so you don't have to worry about remembering it amid the postop grog.)
Surgery and recovery ~ma, Erin! As for Malachi, fluid-filled cysts are not, to my knowledge, either uncommon or dangerous on cats. The vet can probably drain it and it'll be fine. IANAV
Surgery, cat, and interview ~ma.
