Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / March 2005Bandit Update
I just got back from the vet. Bandit is going to need surgery in the morning to remove the second burn. It is very yellow (from the eschar) and not granulating like it should, so it has to come off before it too becomes gangrenous. I talked to the vet further about what caused the burn and she said they had just started using heating "bags" that were recommended to them by NW Animal Surgery (which is why she was burned both on her stomach and her back with the burn on the back not as deep since she was laying on her stomach and the bag was just resting on her back). They have now thrown all of those out and are using only the water-filled thermal blankets. I am still worried about her going under anesthesia for the third time in three weeks, but it has to be done so she can recover fully. Please send mega purrs for her to come through the surgery OK and recover completely - my poor baby has been through *SO* much these last three weeks, she deserves a break! -- Hugs, CatNipped http://www.PossiblePlaces.com/CatNipped/ My gosh. Poor Bandit. My crew & I will purr like crazy. I'll definitely ask what kind of heat pads my doc uses if mine ever need anesthesia (Daisy's teeth might need it again some day). Katz, Moxie & Daisy Purrs for Bandit! She's been through so much.  Signature-Kelly kelly at farringtons dot net "Wake up, and smell the cat food" -TMBG >I just got back from the vet.

I'm certain she will handle it like a champ. I hope the vet also presents this to the place that recommended them and the company that makes them. I know I will be certain to ask what is used if any of my babies have to undergo surgery. > > I just got back from the vet.

If they are, they should file an adverse incident report. That's the only way the FDA, short of epidemics and the likes, knows about product safety problems.

[quoted text clipped - 16 lines] > report. That's the only way the FDA, short of epidemics and the likes, > knows about product safety problems. I third this recommendation. They should be providing feedback to the source, so they know what happens to the animals and possibly work on the bags or put warnings on them. Lots of strong healthy purrs for Bandit for her next surgery. She's a healthy loved kitty supported by the purrs of rpca and she'll do just fine. I'll be thinking of her tomorrow. Otis had a mysterious accident when he was younger that required all kinds of skin grafts and terrible things. He had three general anaesthetics in three days and I was worried sick about him. He was fine too. I took the day off after the third time because he was feeling pretty wobbly. The CEO of the company didn't understand completely - it was the same day as a crucial securities filing we were doing. I managed it all from home but he was not totally impressed by my absence. So, I know also about the work issues. I wish you luck on all fronts. Susan M otis and chester >I just got back from the vet.

Yes, she is paying for all treatment and all medicines. I thought she was going to pay for the emergency vet also, but she hasn't - but that's OK, I would have spent ten times as much for my poor hurt baby!

Purrs steadily coming over for Bandit. I know your concern. Frank had to be sedated three times in a short period of time last autumn, when he had his trouble with a tooth. He was almost 17 then, and the vets had said his BUN was elevated and sedation was always a risk. But that tooth had to be fixed. Well, he's still with me, and his own perky self. We're purring and meatloaf meditating that Bandit does just as well as he did.
