Lily had her first round of surgery last weetk. After many months of working to get her healthy enough to undergo surgery, and finding the right vet to do it, it was finally time. After 5 1/2 hours of surgery, she was back on her feet less than an hour later. When it was time for her to come home the next day, she had been spayed, undergone extensive dental surgery, had 2 mammary tumours removed, and had reconstructive surgery to remove the extra skin folds in her ears that were causing recurring yeast infections.
It was a rough few days after surgery, but she is now better than ever! She is now eating more, and it seems to be going down much easier for her. Now that she is on the mend, she is more energetic, and happy to play with Noam. I am taking her for a check-up this Friday.
Next Thursday she is having another operation to have an eyelid lift, and to deal with the rolls and skin tags that are constantly becoming infected. Luckily, the Victoria SPCA is covering all the costs of her operations, medications and specialized food. This has been just wonderful, as there is no way we could have afforded to give her everything she needs. I'm excited that the Princess Pei will soon be as good as new!
