The Save Sasha Initiative

Sasha is back at the vet today.

For those of you who haven't been keeping up, she spent about a month at the vet vbefore she was ready to come home. Despite the continued antibiotics and the vet's claim that she was ok, her infection returned and manifested itself in oozing puss-filled sores. (ew)

So, tomorrow morning she'll undergo surgery to remove the necrotic tissue in her underside and we will try a different medication.

She only weighs 5 pounds right now (which for a full grown cat is underweight) so I am hoping that this will be the final time and that the new meds will work.

Bah.

Oh no. :( I hope she will be ok.

Unfortunately, Sasha didn't make it through the surgery. The bacteria ate through her abdomen, and she was too weak to make it through the added surgery that needed to be performed.
