[Gpdd] HEALTH: Cuddles update

[Ginger Fitzsimmons]

Mr. Cuddles had his surgery. It turns out that the big stone was NOT in his bladder but in his ureter. The vet was able to open the side of the ureter and get it out and it has been sent for analysis, just in case there is something to learn there. She could not find the little stone; post-op xray made it look as if might have disintegrated and now be sludge in the ureter. 

He was very interested in food when he woke up and amazed the tech by gobbling up 12 cc of Critical Care. He seems a bit less interested for me now, but he's not waking up from a fast, either. We're not out of the woods. The ureter could heal wrong and close up, stones could still come back, etc. But he's having a chance and enjoying as much romaine as he can talk us out of, which will have to do for now.
