Surgery today

[stalincat]

My beautiful girl Ripley is undergoing a surgery pretty much right this moment. I'm so worried about her=( But hopefully she will be fine, she's in good hands. Think its the best vet clinic in Scotland. I'm still shaky though and can't think of anything else. The vet should call back in about 2h and tell me how did it go.

There was something wrong with her eggs forming, and the doc said it HAS to be removed, he is going to spay her too so it doesn't happen again.
My poor sweet girl=(

Has anyone's cham had this done to her?

It's Hospital for Small Animals at Royal Dick School of Veterinary Studies in Roslin, Midlothian. They are pretty good as far as I know.

Thanks everyone!
I just want my sweet girl back safe and sound. It's weird not to have her here.
Should hear back from the vet pretty soon

Update:
The surgery was successful, Ripley is recovering from anesthetics. She was 150g before the surgery and 86g after!!! Poor wee bugger!
The thing I didn't like them saying was 'if she survives the night'. Ugh..
They will call tomorrow morning to update on her state. Fingers crossed. Praying to Chameleon God to keep her safe.

 

[laurie]

Yea for Ripley. I knew she would be ok. Now at least you can relax.

 

[pssh]

Im glad she made it out alright! Keep us updated.

 

[lysinlight87]

She's over the first hurdle, I'm so pleased for you. Let's hope you can take her home soon

I hope she makes a speedy recovery. I'm sure she will be fine Fingers and toes and whatever else can be crossed that she gets home safe and sound

 

[stalincat]

Thanks again for your support ladies n gents!
Just spoken to the nurse, Ripley is doing fine. Still lethargic, but not bad. Not eating yet though, they will feed her directly in her mouth later today. Will probably be able to take her home tomorrow! Hooray!

 

[mcbdz]

Yay! So glad she's recovering well. Hope she eats good for them later and comes home soon. Keep us updated.

[squeekz1992]

[rsepiphyte]

Update:
Ripley is back home, has a wee scar on her side, but seems to be in a good mood. She's still a bit weak, but she has been eating quite well. Although, still no poo (never thought I'll be upset by the lack of poo ha).
Hopefully she won't get sick again. I don't think I can handle another £470 vet bill.
Thanks all of you lovely people for the support! It was quite nice=) I'd buy you all a drink if I could
