A Baxter UPDATE

I spoke to Stephanie at the hospital this morning and she informs me that Baxter is ready to come home.  I think the staff at Dog & Cat Veterinary Hospital are ready for Baxter to come home!!  He is up, walking around and making himself known.  It would seem that the surgery was a success.  He is being naughty and nipping at the very people who are there to help him, but he is scared and in unfamiliar surroundings, so I guess that is to be expected.  The very good news is that we can pick him up tonight.  We are going after work to get him and so will start our recuperative routine at home for the next several weeks.  Confinement to a cage is not going to be popular with him, but we will need to be vigilant and make him stay in the cage for his own good.  A very scary time but thank goodness it ends well.
