Benne's Recovery

My poor, poor Benne...I took him in to get neutered, but instead, SHE got spayed! Yes, you read it correctly! My Benne is female, and it's been weird calling her a she. I still slip sometimes.

She's doing well after surgery. She had her front paws de-clawed, as well. I've been giving her plenty of pain medication so she doesn't have ghost pains later in life. She's quite active and eating well. I didn't expect her to be in such great shape! She was a little strange last night, her first few hours home. She would walk a little, stop for a while, and then fall over. She's acting pretty normal now, thank goodness!

Check out her Elizabethan style decor...let's just call her Queen Benne! (If you look closely enough you can see her incision where the fur is shaved away on her belly, and her paws are still a little matted with whatever because she hasn't been able to groom them yet.)
