Update on Tigger from Mom

[Maryann,Roo and Tigger]

Tigger went to the vet today for his post surgery check. All is well. He has pooped out all the pieces. My daughters are feeling much better also. Thanks for all your well wishes to Roo's post.

The day of Tigger's surgery just before he was scheduled, a Boxer was brought in who had swallowed an entire wire coat hanger, clothes and all. He went first as he was in acute distress. Tigger really only had his belly skin opened and the small intestine "run" (twice) by the vet's fingers. Everything had moved to the colon while Boxer (doing well) was undergoing coathanger removal. Once things hit the colon they nearly always pass without incident. I was told Tigger only had to have surgery because he was repeatedly throwing up, which I have learned is often a sign of a puncture somewhere. But all was well and he is feeling good, but not loving the e-collar. One more week and staples come out and goodbye e-collar.

Glad to hear that Tigger is healing nicely. I hope that Tigger has learned his lesson about "it" and will listen to Roo next time when Roo tells him that he is not making good choices of "tag" toys!

Thank goodness, Tigger is recovering so well. It sounds like he is truly on his way to a speedy recovery. We all send our love.

Glad to hear that Tigger is doing well. How on earth could the boxer manage that?
