Oh Gloria, I'm so sorry, for Pansy and esp for you. I know how hard it
is to send any of them off for surgery. I always worry and this is
why. From the instances of this happening, it doesn't seem to matter
how old they are. There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason for this
sort of thing. Can you ask what kind of anesthesia was used? When I
brought my Ursula in to be spayed the vet suggested giving her fluid
during surgery. I hadn't heard of doing that before, I have no idea if
that helps. Aw, this just sucks. I know how much you love your little
charges and that you always do whatever you can to protect them. There
was no way for you to know this was going to happen, and like me, I know
that you feel strongly about no one moving on to forever homes intact.
Try not to be too hard on yourself, (it's so very hard to not second
guess our decisions after the fact), this wasn't your fault.
Much love to you,
Nina

Would you add Pansy to the Bridge list? I took her to the vet this
morning to be spayed. When I called this afternoon, he said that she
died after the surgery!! I was shocked. I got her in early December.
She was not FELV, was a pretty little 6 mo old silver Persian, really
sweet, playful, really pretty. I certainly didn't expect it, and
will miss her.
