Happy Hannah had a glorious additional bonus time of over one yr & two months after amp for osteo! She made me laugh everyday! Joined April's Angels after send off meal of steak, ice cream, M&Ms & deer poop!
Wonderful update, I'm glad the surgery is over and she made it through. Now on with healing and learning a new normal.
I'm also glad you are so comfortable with your vets, I found that invaluable as I have made choices for my pug pack through the years.

That's wonderful news!!! I'm so happy for you and Mabey that she came through the surgery with no issues. I'll be keeping you and Mabey in my thoughts today when you get to bring your precious girl home. Home is definitely the best place to recoup...the clinics sure can get noisy with all the patients that come in. She'll need a good bit of rest and not too much activity. Her only activity should be going to the potty.
Keep us posted and know that we're here for you if you have questions.

Jill is a 9-year-old tuxedo kitty. She was diagnosed with Osteosarcoma in June 2012 on her toe in her right hind leg. Her leg was amputated on 12/12/12 and she completed four rounds of chemo (2 of Carbo, 2 of Doxy) in April 2013.
