" just looks a bit like the edge of an uncooked cornish pastie

"

Lovely description! Bet it heals really quickly.
How is he this morning?

Have been following thread, although this is first post on it - sorry to hear about poorly Darcy and glad to hear that it was "only" a hairball - hope the biopsy results come back OK. Fingers crossed that the inflammation was just due to all that non-sterile hair clogging up the system and that he makes a quick recovery.

Darcy's been improving over the weekend, but this morning I noticed a stitch was loose. He has a little gaping opening in his tummy. So I have brought forward this afternoon's appointment to 9.45. He's not been worrying the stitches, but has been doing a lot of jumping and catrobatics so it could be that he's bumped his tummy or caught it

Have to run now to get Domi off to nursery and then back home to collect Darcy and then off up to the vet!!!

Good luck at the vets Yola! let us know how Darcy is x

Hope that's just a tiny setback. Maybe they'll be happy to leave it? Maybe staple (eek - but quick and no anaesthetic). xxxx s to Darcy

OK, well it hasn't actually come apart - just me being a panic-head

; the skin edges have moved and slightly opened

that's why it's showing pink, but it's not opened enough to worry about it and also the stitch is still in place albeit it has moved a little.

So panic over!!!

Stitches to come out on Saturday + biopsy result then also.

What a relief Yola! Better to get it checked out than not though. Glad all is going well with his recovery

CJK · 10-07-2006, 11:02 AM

Glad to hear the little fella is recovering as expected and the stitches are ok.
Hope it's good news saturday!
