Awwww, sorry she's having to stay in another night, but for the best so they can ensure she's in tip top shape when she does come back xxx

Aaw I'm so sorry Ruth. Poor Lexy and you. Know how upset you must be for your girl and glad you went to your sister's place for some tlc. Here's hoping everything OK for her to come home tomorrow

Bazsmum · « **Reply #228 on:** October 17, 2009, 14:45:24 PM »

Sorry to hear that Kitty...Try to think towards the future, she will be home soon with nothing but healing and resting to worry about...

Glad you went to your sister's for company....

Christine (Blip) · « **Reply #227 on:** October 17, 2009, 14:41:40 PM »

Ruth. Poor little Lexy

Still, better there than at home until they are completely satisifed all is well (I know you know this).

Janeyk · « **Reply #226 on:** October 17, 2009, 14:40:46 PM »

aww that's a shame but for the best I suppose

Kittybabe (Ruth) · « **Reply #225 on:** October 17, 2009, 14:37:59 PM »

Well not suh great news. Lexy has had to stay an extra night. As they were prepping her to come home they noticed that her wound was bleeding and it was fairly swollen.

The swelling is normal but they want to keep an eye on the bleeding.

I got to visit with her so when we opened the door I leaned in and Lexy shuffled over to me and practically crawled into my arms. Something she never does.

We had a good natter and she purred for me. On her best behaviour as usual.

I am just trying to get the image of my baby's spotlessly white paw all bloody where the blood dripped.

So one more night. I couldn't stomach going home to an empty house so came to Bucks to my sisters and to be fussed by Pippa Pipsqueak.

Paddy I hope you're eating

Great news Ruth

Get well soon Lexy

Christine (Blip) · « **Reply #215 on:** October 16, 2009, 18:46:32 PM »

I'm always cautiously optimistic if a problem is immediately obvious and has an obvious solution.

Hugs to Lexy

Sue P (Paddysmum) · « **Reply #214 on:** October 16, 2009, 18:29:33 PM »

Ruth - phew!

(Paddy says he's still too anxious to eat, though.

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #213 on:** October 16, 2009, 18:27:04 PM »

So pleased they could see the problem immediately and repair

well done Lexy for being such a good girl and now you will be wanting to come home I am sure

Bazsmum · « **Reply #212 on:** October 16, 2009, 15:17:21 PM »

So glad her surgery is now over, that's a big "weight off" Im sure!

Head rubs for darling Lexy for being a sweetie at the vets!

Dawn F · « **Reply #211 on:** October 16, 2009, 15:17:12 PM »

Leanne · « **Reply #210 on:** October 16, 2009, 14:53:16 PM »

That all sounds really positive, great news

clarenmax · « **Reply #209 on:** October 16, 2009, 14:50:59 PM »

Glad the problem was immediately obvious, and that madam Lexy is now out of surgery and getting some well deserved cuddles

Kittybabe (Ruth) · « **Reply #208 on:** October 16, 2009, 14:31:18 PM »

Well, just had a call from vet.

The surgery went well, Lexy was just waking up and was an electric blanket getting cuddles from the nurses. Apparently she's been a little charmer for them

When they opened they saw the problem. The nylon sutures they use had been snapped. The little tube they use to tie the sutures to had moved and cut through the sutures. The leg was all over the place. Vet said that she could move the leg in any direction freely due to that. As this rarely happens what she did was repair the damage, and used a different type of nylon suture, and did it twice! All cleaned up and sewn up. Knee is solid and so is leg.

I can call later to see how Lexy is doing, and then can go pick her up at midday tomorrow.

Fingers crossed people!! My baby is ok!!!

Kittybabe (Ruth) · « **Reply #206 on:** October 16, 2009, 10:04:22 AM »

Just got home after dropping Lexy off. She's going to get a more robust surgery to make sure we get this right this time.

Lexy was fine, a bit quiet, but that was expected. I will hear by 2pm. Thanks everyone for your well wishes.
