Last night I noticed a pink spot at one of the incision sites on Boots.
There was no bleeding or oozing just pink tissue showing. This morning the
tissue protruding from the scrotum. I thought the incision would be healed
by this time (a week after surgery). Boots doesn't seem to care but I'm
calling the vet in an hour when they open.

It may be okay - when Kira was spayed, she opted to pull out her
stitches two days after she got home. I called the vet, and they asked
if it was pink or red. Pink. Then, she sounds fine. Just keep an eye
on it. We had her done at the same time as my mom's cat, so we took
both in when it was time for the stitches to be removed. They looked
at her and said she looked great.

What a stinker! She really grossed me out on that one.

Took him up to the vet the other day. He said it was scar tissue and no
biggy. I was just concerned as it appeared that one incision site had opened
back up. I haven't seen him licking back there very much but who knows maybe
he got bored overnight and went to town. He didn't have any stitches to pull
out.

Guess he's gonna have one big lumpy scar on one side. Oh well once the fur
grows back who's to see it right?
