Bmmccasland: Hi: Glad your kitty is doing okay. We are having fun times with our old 21 year old cat. He had a mass (non-cancerous) removed from his neck/back area (with only a local) last week. He never even flinched while they did the surgery, but now we are doing all the fun things - like giving him antibiotics which make him sick, and putting coverings on his back foot so he can not scratch his wound and tear the staples out! It is a challenge to get a bandage to stay on that rear foot!!! He hates it real bad and every night he has managed to get it loose or off! What a little brat.

We love him anyway.

Hope the treatments go well for your pretty kitty

Oh, and in response to your post about riding on the San Francisco Peaks. I did exactly that on Saturday. Went up there for 5 hours (which included riding home through town too). It really helped clear the head. It is so beautiful up there. I went up into the ferns and aspens so green and lush right now
