Whiskers


Yesterday, Whiskers was supposed to be neutered. Well, he ended up testing positive for FIV. Ugh! I found out around lunch time and ran over to the vet to see him. I have zero control over what the shelter and the accepting rescue decides, I am only a foster. I don't like having no control, it makes me very uncomfortable. I'm a bit of a control freak, actually.When I saw him in the cage at the vet's office, I got very emotional just thinking it might be the last time I saw him. Waiting on word from the rescue about whether or not they would still accept him was rough. If not, he would be returned to the shelter. Although, I would have done anything in my power to adopt him myself and find him a home. About two hours later they gave the decision......The rescue in VA was going to take him and find him a great home! I don't know the last time I've felt such relief.
Because it was so late in the day, they had to postpone the neuter until today. He had to stay at the vet overnight and will be neutered this morning. Please everyone purr and pray for smooth surgery with no complications!
