Yes, cats are remarkably resilient. Maddy seemed to be pretty much her usual self by the morning after her surgery. It makes us cringe to see her dashing around and wrestling with Edwin, but we figure that if doing so hurt, she'd stop. We are pulling them apart when it looks like there's a chance that Eddie will get his claws hooked on her sutures, the thought of which makes us cringe even more. We won't know until we get the lab results what her long-term prognosis is. One of the vets remarked that if it is cancer, it's nothing like she's seen in 20 years of practicing veterinary medicine. Another friend of Tracie's with a good deal of relevant knowledge and experience (hi Steve!) expressed the same opinion. We're cautiously optimistic. Thanks for your kind words, Jeff.

I'm very sorry to hear about Maddy, my fiance and I have been enjoying the kitten videos quite a bit. If it helps at all, my parents have a small fluffy female named Furon who has an auto-immune problem that requires daily pregnizone (sp?), but is otherwise a healthy 5yo who seems largely indestructible and ( when outside ) is spry enough to kill birds twice her size. Cats can be amazingly resilient, as it turns out. cheers, Jeff Hi Adam,
