Great News

The specialist saw Savannah on Tuesday, and decided that she looked okay to him, and would be better off without further surgery.

What this means: Savannah should be able to come home as soon as she starts eating on her own! Woo-hoo! We don't know if that's in a day or a week, but it should hopefully be soon.

What else this means: We should be well and truly covered on the financial field, thanks to the kindness of everyone who has helped out. Anything extra we take in is going to the animal hospital, so if you still want to send in money send it to them directly (address is here if you need it). Thank you all so much - for passing the word, sending emails, posting auctions (23 hours to go!), checking in, and of course for sending money. We'll still keep everyone regularly updated on how she's doing, of course.

I posted pictures (here) that we took of Savannah yesterday. We think she has decided that Heather's lap is just the right size and shape for her. Still doesn't like it when you touch her back legs and flanks; must still be tender back there from not really using them for two weeks, or they're still sore from the accident (or both). She likes to wander around and hiss at the other cats, and really doesn't like it if you stop her from getting into places she wants to get into (like the boiler room, or the operating room). She's going to be a handful, I think. ;)

Thanks again, everyone!
