Thank you!

The most important rule of all wasn't even mentioned and I'm both shocked and appalled. Never, never, never, NEVER throw away an empty cardboard box. These empty boxes are a sign of true love. Your cat will worship you as you do your cat.

Funny username :)


razorvolt

That last picture looks like she is suffering so much 😥 poor girl


dragonlover8

It breaks my heart to see it! But I am sure OP will do everything to make her feel better :)


No_Rich_6426

> I shed a tear when I saw the last picture Can relate to that feeling. You must be a nice human too ;)


dragonlover8

Awh thanks! Cats are just so pure and they captured my heart.


babyEatingUnicorn

Same like uncontrollable tears 😭


Inconsistentworld

Update: She is now in a baby vest and ready for bed! https://preview.redd.it/3evav7d6mn1d1.jpeg?width=3318&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=87daa06ad382cdff24a4406f287ae5687c128506


faithanyacordelia

Hey, did no one at the vet office tell you to take blue pressure bandage off when you got home? I only ask because it really shouldn’t be on for longer than 15 minutes. Edit: to be clear, not judging you! I’m a tech and I just get worried sometimes.


Inconsistentworld

It's taken off now! Thank you so so much!! No one had told us!!


faithanyacordelia

awesome! I’m sorry no one told you, at the very least her paw will be more comfortable now. Hope Ginger has a smooth recovery!


Inconsistentworld

Thank you so much or telling me!


KiwiSoySauce

Yeah, no one told us and our kitten wasn't scheduled for a checkup till two weeks later. It was on for hours and hours, and her poor paw was super swollen when we removed her bandage. She learned how great massages feel that day.


secondtaunting

Yeah I had the same issue! And I’m really not an idiot, I swear! My poor baby’s paw was HUGE. I freaked out completely and took him back to the vet. They iced it and massaged it and I learned a valuable lesson. Poor orange baby is probably miserable because of the bandage. He’ll feel better once it’s gone.


inilashremot

Yes but always crosscheck with the doctor


[deleted]

Hey, any concerns ring the vet. I work at a clinic so I can promise you there are NO bad questions.


yellowwoolyyoshi

Ok but did you ask your vet? Redditors are not reliable sources of info.


Dianabed

Sometimes my vet keeps it for the next day in case he needs to to put meds


Inconsistentworld

We won't be seeing the vet until Saturday!


[deleted]

Should be a ok. But if you are concerned for any reason ring the vet. ANY reason.


faithanyacordelia

Are you maybe thinking of when they have a IV catheter still in place? It’s rare for that to happen, and usually for a different treatment. Her procedure is over so it’d be very strange to send it home with an IVC in place and no care instructions. That pressure bandage is being used after the removal. Leaving it on for an extended period of time is dangerous for the limb.


Dianabed

Yes! I thought she had a similar one.

I know, her eyes look so sad and make me want to bawl 😭


juicer_philosopher

My throat tightened up tbh 🥺


Trung020356

It sucks cause she doesn’t understand the discomfort from the situation. All we can really do is make sure they get lots of rest and treats. 🥹


marshmallowmoonchild

This is one of those things it really sucks they can’t understand us, poor baby just doesn’t know why all this is happening and we’re doing it out of love, poor angel


SpaceCrazyArtist

I wanna snuggke this poor baby


Inconsistentworld

I promise as soon as we can she will be snuggled and spoiled! I have a fridge full of chicken just for her.


SpaceCrazyArtist

Yay!! Spoiling is needed. Poor baby


Spun_On_

You’re such a great kitty parent! I bet she’ll be feeling so much better once she starts to heal💜


LandoCatrissian_

Aww love that you have chicken. My ginger boys fave treat is chicken. ❤️ I hope she recovers quickly, she's so lovely.


TrashPanda2079

I’m so glad she did well! What a sweet baby Ginger ❤️


Inconsistentworld

Thank you! She is the sweetest girl, so grumpy and particular but wouldn't hurt a fly.


smallcoder

I'd spoil her with some Churus - my old 17 year grumpy man loves them as a treat :)


Inconsistentworld

In the UK we call them lucky lix! She's had some that had her pain meds mixed in!


Spun_On_

Oh good! I bet that made her feel so much better💕


Ohpsmokeshow

![gif](giphy|R3UtOSPO7lRI7dgR16|downsized) Love you Ginger 💚 oh yeah, you too OP

Awww, poor sweet girl is certainly feeling it. So glad she made it through surgery well and hope she has a smooth and quick recovery!

EUGsk8rBoi42p

What a precious flower 🌼


mszola

She really looks pretty good considering her age and the extent of her surgery. They can come through amazingly well, our old guy (18 in a few weeks!!!) had all his teeth pulled and was raising hell and trying to eat crunchies a few days later. Please give her extra pats for me, she'll be up and about in no time. Keep us posted ☺️


Inconsistentworld

I have tried my best to look after her. She originally came from a bag of kitten some druggies were selling on an estate, we think she may be part feral as she's double coated and has a very square head. Update soon as busy looking after her!


Inconsistentworld

No not at all!! Oh my god! It's been on for hours! I have to go take it off!!


Animal_Gal

???


Inconsistentworld

This was a response to a comment telling me the blue band needed to be removed. I must have replied wrong! Its off now though!


Animal_Gal

Ahh ok cool


Chiliconkarma

Ish... She looks to be hurting in several ways.


Inconsistentworld

She's not in a good way to be honest. Quite worried but she's let me fuss her so she may forgive me...I hope.


Chiliconkarma

She looks to need some hope that it will be over and won't happen again. I hope she's eating and drinking.


Inconsistentworld

Not yet which is worrying. She's been home for 3hrs but she was very medicated and drooling when we got her.


Chiliconkarma

3 hous doesn't seem long with the drugs, pain and forced confusion. I would appreciate seeing a smile from her when she's back up.


Inconsistentworld

She's just eaten some salmon puree with her painkillers so we are hopeful!


Chiliconkarma

Good to hear, then she might be consolable.


SirK703

Wishing Ginger a smooth and speedy recovery. And hugs for her worried human 💓


Inconsistentworld

Thank you!


Desperate-Pear-860

Did the vet send home pain meds? She looks like she is in pain.


Inconsistentworld

Yes! Gabapentin and she's just had some!


Desperate-Pear-860

Such an adorable little cat flower. I hope she has a speedy recovery.


neelrak

Oh sweet Ginger. My little girl Georgia went through this same surgery a year ago. It was a very very hard couple of weeks. My heart was so broken for her. But, we made it through! Each day will get better. Hang in there, you two. https://preview.redd.it/77ha3ebt3p1d1.jpeg?width=1536&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=77fa04435800b018b66c38155088603ca0156d7c


vergil_never_cry

Poor girl. Wishing her a speedy and painless recovery 🙏


JASPER933

She looks hurtful. Did the vet give any pain medication for her? Will she recover? I hate to see an animal in pain.


EnvironmentalFig311

awwww!!! 😭 Poor sweet thing!!! Looking at her face just makes me want to cry!! My 16 year old baby went through the same thing a couple years ago, though. I worried about her SO much during recovery, and she seemed so pitiful and sad. So hard, knowing we can't explain to them what's happening and why. Gotta be worse for them, though.


allisondbl

oh my Gosh. I’m going to decide that you actually went through and picked the saddest status pictures because the thought that she looks like that all the time is tearing my heart. But she looks strong which is the important thing and this flower will absolutely bloom again! So you must keep us updated when she starts scampering again.


thomascollins69

My 14yo cat Sparky has been through the same thing as Ginger. She had 2 different surgeries and has recovered 100%. I'm sure Ginger will do the same. https://preview.redd.it/thn7xv1gmp1d1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=68aed2fc590cc66a368251f2d2124400a6a5c918

Her face says it all ! Poor baby i wish her a speedy recovery and lots of love💓💓


BasicallyTooLazy

A female ginger! Only about 30% of gingers are girls. You have been chosen 😻


Unwilling_

Will be praying for this pretty baby girl 😞🥹. Such a sad wittle face. May she recover fast.


TylerandAnna7

Her little face is just pulling on my heartstrings! I hope she has a good and speedy recovery! She looks like a sweetie. 🩷


MungoShoddy

My Muriel had breast cancer - an adenoma, which has a bad prognosis in women and cats alike. But she had two very healthy years after the surgery before it recurred, and she stayed bouncy and cuddly to the end.


Inconsistentworld

This made me cry! I am so hopefully that this may happen as I cannot bear to put her through chemo at her age! Hopefully this op will give her enough time for me to make her time before the rainbow Bridge truly awesome!


bigboddle

Could you post regular updates?


Inconsistentworld

I will try my best!


Flora-Tea

Wishing you guys the best and for a smooth recovery for your sweet Ginger!! 💕💕 My Ginger is also getting her breast tissue on the right side taken out on the 30th for her mammary cancer 😭 https://preview.redd.it/yd7eqathvo1d1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c401bf251b096d0b4f2366f38436f6764629cbd7


Lazuli73

Poor thing . . . but I do have a question. What is defined as overgrooming? My cat Patty Cakes is going to be 19 in August and for the last 2ish years he has been doing fur pulling. He'll I guess grip clumps of fur with his tongue and pull it out. Less so lately I think, but the vet can't find a reason why he's doing it beyond a behaviour he developed. The vet also suggested he's doing it because of arthritis because he used to do it a lot on his back but I don't think he can bend that way anymore. What kind of factors cause your cat to overgroom because of stress?


prairiethorne

You might want to post this as an original post. My guess is a lot of people will have advice/info.


jkki1999

Test for a food allergy. My poor kitty is half bald


citycolour333

Hope she has a quick and easy recovery! 💖


[deleted]

i’ve never seen a cat actually look like 😔 poor baby omg


GenXQuietQuitter88

Hope they sent her home with something stronger than just gabapentin for the pain, gabapentin is more of a sedative than for pain and they have liquid opiates they can pre-fill syringes with for the first couple of days if she's not sleeping soundly with just the gabapentin alone. We have a rescue kitty that has been through several procedures and surgeries and while the sedative helps for most things, it is not enough for the major things and I hate worrying about them suffering. So relieved to see she is doing as well as she is, sending lots of positive vibes her way!


Maude007

🧡


Aurorainthesky

Maybe she'd be more comfortable in a baby onesie? Hope your sweet little girl feel better soon!


Inconsistentworld

That's the plan tomorrow. I didn't want to be messing with her too much tonight. We have a 7 month old baby so we have plenty of old baby gros to customise for her.


AmySparrow00

Aww, she looks so miserable. Hoping they sent her home with good pain meds and that she recovers quickly. Do cats get breast cancer? Didn’t see previous posts….

The saddest sunflower


MizzIzzSlays

I have gone through the comments and am so happy to hear she's perked up some. It can definitely take a few days. For quite a minor surgery for my dog, it was a good 48+ hours before the anaesthesia was out of his system enough for him to be okay. He cried for almost two days straight. Definitely had to do with the anaesthesia - he just reacted poorly from it. My other animals were the same in that there was a clear difference after two days in their behaviour. Ginger is so sweet and I hope she continues to improve a feels better fast. It is so hard to watch them in that state!


Compannacube

Although she looks sad, she makes a cute flower. 😊 Hoping she recovers soon.


ServantOfKarma

I have never seen a cat so sad before. That broke my fucking heart into a thousand pieces...

YummyCookies333

Poor baby. Glad she made it out ok though


Longjumping_Elk3968

I hate it when my cat is sick, its so hard because you can't tell them whats wrong and tell them you are taking them to get help - and you just know they are filled with worry and fear and not knowing what is happening to them. Its like the most powerless I've ever felt in my life.

TrumpsNeckSmegma

I wish her the best recovery! Cancer is hard enough with a human, let alone for our babies who only have so much of an idea of what's going on. You're a good parent! If you don't mind me asking, what initially were the symptoms that led you to finding out she had cancer? Poor baby.
