It was already beyond him pooping it out himself, too much in him.

Good news! Just go a call from the vet. It all stayed in his stomach so No surgery! They ending up doing the scope procedure and were able to remove it all from his stomach that way. Does not look like any was in the intestines and if some small amount made it there he will be able to pass it on his own. He is stating to wake up and we can go get him in a hour or so. Already replaced the wastebasket in my daughter's bathroom with one that has a lid so this can not happen again!
I am relieved and glad we spent the $3600 to save his life! It was well worth it in the end!
Thanks everyone for the support and kind words!

That's awesome news!! Glad he'll be coming home :D

Good morning! It's 58 degrees this morning....in Tennessee...in JUNE o_O . I'm not complaining, though!

I have two signature corals coming from Top Shelf Aquatics today, which I'm very excited about. Hopefully, I can control myself and stay away from the live sales for a while (promises, promises). ;Shamefullyembarrased

It's Friday and my half day at work, so let the weekend begin...soon!! I hope everybody has a great Friday! ;Joyful

Someone has already pointed out that today is Friday, so we have that covered. Based on how early the sun came up, I will speculate that we are somewhere in the middle of June, but correct me if you think I am off on that.

No matter. APEX tells me it is a WC day, so time to wet the floors.
Good morning!

That is the way it should be! Here, they looked at him said what needed to be done, but needed payment before they would do anything!! I was kinda put off by that.

Good Morning!
My daughter informed me her swimsuit from last year not longer fits. Yesterday we went to Kohls and Target and no luck. Penny's on my side of town has closed. So that means I have to suck it up and go to the mall today. This is a little bit scary for me due to covid and last weekend when they finally opened there was a shooting inside Penny's at this mall. Not to mention the stress of shopping with a teenager! Wish me luck today!
