So, yesterday JoJo had her lady parts taken out. I picked her up from the vet, and this is what I got:
I guess I'd be sad, too. She was still wonky from all the medicine and couldn't even hold her head up. She just slept and slept. Eve thought she looked pretty silly with her cone on. While they had Josie under anesthesia, they also operated on her foot. She had had this weird growth on her toe. The Doc wasn't sure if it was a piece of foreign matter (e.g., splinter) that the flesh grew around or even a tumor. They sent the tissue sample off to UGA to be analyzed. We'll wait to hear from them.
She's doing so much better today. We were able to remove the bandage from her foot and she's walking around very well. We even had to stop her from trying to jump up on us when we got home today. Unfortunately, now that she is mobile we have a problem. Eve is absolutely terrified of Josie with the cone on. I guess it was funny yesterday when Jo wasn't moving. But today Josie was walking around and you can't see her face, just this cone. It must look very strange to Eve and she was screaming and crying every time Josie got near her or moved around. I actually had to banish Jo to the hallway behind the baby gate until Jim came home from work. Eve wouldn't calm down. We're going to have to get her used to this because I think Jo will have to wear it for another week or so.
