Hopefully he will pee straight and not allow it to stay damp.
Yesh he'll take care of that
A quick recovery for Tritan

Thanks l4...also his peenie was saved...I was really amazed at just HOW close the laceration was...now that he is all shaved and I see all the stitches...WOW...I hate to think what could have happened.

He was all full of vinegar this morning...beat me down the stairs again (not a difficult thing to do since I am pretty slow in the morning!)...but since I am meanie Mom, I made him take a tramadol cap anyway just keep him slowed down...he now has that kind of "glazed" look in his eyes again, but he has to be a least a bit slowed down with all those stitches.

We all get a shot at being Mean Mom sooner or later QMC !

What a piece of luck you happened to notice ot as quickly as you did efore it could worsen! ( if you were a real mean Mom, you'd not have noticed!)

Glad to hear he's back to being his bad self (hey Tritan buddy ol' pal ~ could ya sapare a little tramidol ? I could use a little "glazing"...)

Yay Tritan!!!! I am soooo glad you still have your man parts!! That would have cost mom an even prettier penny if they would have had to do that surgery!!

Glad to hear the damage isn't more severe!

Now leave your stitches alone and heal quick, Tritan!!!

Glad to hear everything is healing well, and in a few weeks,Tritan should be good as new. I think washing his butt, even when you didn't see the laceration at the time, likely helped clean it up, and no wonder he was cranky getting his butt cleaned, as it probably hurt. Good luck!

Yikes, this must have been so scary for you.

Glad to hear that all went well for Tritan and hope he has a speedy recovery.

Well....right now I am keeping him "stoned" so he just kind of sits there staring at all kinds of things I cant see...!!

I guess I should be thankful he wasnt a breeding cat...likely would no longer have the "right stuff" for any discriminating queen!!
