well Bono just had a bit of surgery to have one of his claws fixed, it was
hurt in the tree climbing incident after all (chased/scared by run-away
d*gs)
he seemed ok except for sore muscles after the climbing and what not, he's
after all an apartment cat and not used to this type of "excitement"
anyway the "toe" in question stayed a bit swollen and the claw wasn't
functioning really right, even if the used the paw for running, climbing,
jumping, batting, catching and door opening and all as per normal and was in
no pain
so he had to see TED today and she at once saw that surgery was needed to
fix the claw "capsule" (it's called this in Swedish, don't have time to find
the English right now, but you know the part where the claw is fitted in
this kind of joint to the paw)
within 1 hour from the appointment time he had had his op and was ready to
go home, he is now sleeping it off in the bathroom, my parents are still
here so they are checking him, thankfully since I have a lot of stuff that
needs to be done at work today.
he's got a nice red bandage that will hopefully stay until tomorrow, he's
fixed up with antibiotics and pain killers for today and will have pills
from tomorrow, back for checkups next Friday
He should recover fully and have a new, shiny and fully functioning claw in
time =)
Thea was worried too, I went out with Bono and came back briefly without
him - while he was having the op - so she stayed well out of my way - she
clearly didn't want to be taken away and "lost" too ...

thank you, as long as there's not any remaining infection when he's finished
all his meds I can't see a problem

Aww, poor Bono. Purrs for his recovery to go well. And soothing purrs to
Mad Headbutter Thea (and a headbutt from me). No-one's going to go and
lose you!

much brighter now that he don't get one of the pills, against swelling and
stuff, that he had to take the first three days, he was a bit under the
weather with those, slept lots and was very skittish, hiding under things

thought it was me ... =)

Purrs for the Red One. I didn't even know he'd been injured - I guess the
original post got lost somewhere in the recent bad weather we've been having
around here.

hope your weather has improved and you are all ok too
the Red One had to have one of his claws removed. It was injured while
climbing to get away from scary d*gs at my parents, he seemed ok and used
the paw basically fine but stayed a bit swollen and had to have a small op
to clean everything out and meds against infection,
you have to keep up with your Swedish kitties! ;)
