Re: ot: Antonio

[Jennifer Phaewryn O'Gwynn]

Oh good! I'm so glad it was just an anal sack infection. Those usually clear up, and rarely require removal surgery. Did they give him an pain meds? I know when Tang came home from his "dig out" after his impaction, he was in a lot of pain from them (and this is the vet techs exact phrase) "sodomizing him so ruthlessly".
