Hus to you and very gentle but caring pats for the four-legged ones.

Thanks to everyone for sending good juju and prayers our way.  I really
appreciate it.

Krokus had the surgery Monday.  The first night was pretty rough, but today
I twice had to stop him playing with Igloo.  No running and jumping for him
for at least 2 weeks, and the old guy is ready to rumble now!  The vet
insisted on the hard cone, but I've replaced it with the soft Zen cone.  It
keeps Krokus so much more comfortable.  One wound is in the middle of his
back, and the other is right behind his ear, so I don't see any way he could
bite at them, and the soft cone will still protect from scratching.  And the
hard cone was so tight I couldn't get my hand in to check that the wound
behind his ear is doing OK, which it is.  

We're waiting for the biopsy results still, which could take a week, but,
for now, things are good.  

I just have to figure out a way so that each of my boys can get some play
without Krokus getting too rowdy.  We're working on it.

Tracy
