Here’s Chase after his surgery to fix his herniated diaphragm.  He’s doing well now after three days at the vet clinic.  Seeing him well made us realize how much didn’t look right before – his abdomen was too thin, his ears were back, his fur wasn’t shiney, … he’s looking much better now!  Even without any fur on his belly!

He snapped at the vet and vet technicians the first day (which has to be the only time Chase has ever snapped at anybody) but he made up with lots of cuddling the next two days.

The vet said another day and he probably would have lost his small intestine.  I’m not sure what that would have meant as far as his chances of making it so I’m glad it didn’t happen!
