Well, Bear had surgery Wednesday and came home Thursday. Seems to be ok, but slightly depressed and appetite isn't too good. We're all just so glad to have him home though. Questions for anyone with experience in this: What should I expect next? How long is recovery? Is there anything I should or shouldn't do? Scar is so big! :-( Vet said keep them separate, but Gizmo is so sweet I have them together anyway. She seems to understand because she is sleeping in hammock (instead of on top of him like usual). :-) Any tips would be appreciated. So sorry about the whole Kodo thing ... cried for days ... got everyone involved at work. There is a candle lit in Smithtown, New York for Kodo, too! So many candles, no wonder the days and nights have been brighter lately. Thanks a bunch, Samone owned by: Gizmo (Mom, why can't Bear come out and play?) and Bear (Ooh, Owh, I'm so sleepy ...)
