And Sometimes Things are Crazy :(
Last night at feeding Renee let me know that Spizz (newest serval) didn't touch his dinner. Huge red flag, since this boy will roll the other cats to get fed first. So we scheduled an early morning appointment with Dr. Steve Milner today. Thankfully an x-ray showed that he had grass and pieces of bone that had him blocked. Steve did the surgery and our boy recovered nicely and is resting comfortably. It's so important to really know the animals we care for, to learn their habits and be able to read them. Quick action can make the difference and because we watch so closely we were able to save this boy's life. Another day another disaster averted. Thank goodness! And a big thanks to Steve for doing the emergency surgery!
