Lily had a scan this morning and they found pus in the uterus so had to operate. Then they found discharging cysts on her ovaries, so she had a complete hysterectomy.

She is home but not very comfortable when awake, and because she has kidney problems they wouldn't give any painkillers, so if she is in a lot of pain during the night, we'll have to take her back for an injection.

So far she has weed and poohed and is now curled up by the radiator in her bed, sound asleep. She was crying earlier, but is very spaced out still.

Have to take her back Saturday morning for a check. We are just hoping all goes well in the next 48 hours.

Thanks to all forum members who have given support and especially those who said to get her anal gland done when I put on an earlier thread about her biting her tail. If we hadn't taken her for that, the pyometra would not have been discovered maybe until too late.

She is still very ill, so keep up the positive thoughts for her please! :unsure: I guess we are in for a rocky night, when the injecton she had before leaving the surgery wears off
