He went in for his last visit with Dr. Kate today - she said he looks like he's improving even though the black tip still hasn't fallen off. She also did a cold laser treatment - she said it promotes cell growth & helps with inflamation, it does a bunch of other stuff too, but I forgot the whole list. I'll have to google it later. He is supposed to finish the baytril (probably another week), then stay on the gabapentin for another month - then she wants me to slowly wean him off the gabapentin.

He's been putting it away at night for the last 2 weeks except for last night, he had it out twice when I went to check on him. He usually has it out during the day, but today he's kept it put away most of the time. Maybe the cold laser treatment is working.

Gina, I just saw this post. You poor thing! hug2 I'm glad to hear little Sekwaf is (more or less) behaving himself and definitely improving. Dr. Kate sounds like she's doing a wonderful job (as are you!). I'll be keeping you both in my thoughts and prayers. hug2

I'm not sure WHEN she was to be moving but she is moving back to Oregon so may not be able to access a computer right now.

I think she was leaving the day after Christmas. I was thinking about her too. Hope the trip is going well and Sekwaf is doing good.

Ok guys, quick update as I'm borrowing a computer again.

Sekwaf went in for surgery on Friday - he was going to have the neuter (pom off) and the amputation, however, once Alice (my vet here in OR) got a close look at his pee pee, she called me & said that it wasn't necrosis, it was just a dark scab. She said she peeled it off & it looked nice & healthy, so she was reluctant to amputate. I agreed, so we didn't - he just got the neuter. His penis made an appearance on Friday evening, but I haven't seen it since dance

So.....hopefully the penis issue is over, keep your fingers crossed for me!

As for the neuter - I'm not sure how I feel about this whole "pom-off" thing. I have always left the pom on (as has Alice), but Bourbon & Mary suggested I remove it to make sure we removed as many possible sources of testosterone as we could. The first night he was picking at the incision site a bit, so I put him back in the e-collar. The second night, he wasn't picking, but it just didn't look right to me, so I put him back in the e-collar for a second night.

Honestly, the incision site looks icky to me. It is closed and not oozing at all, but it is larger & redder than I expected it to be. I will be taking him back to Alice tomorrow just so she can get a good look at it and tell me one way or the other since I really have no experience with a pom-off neuter. It could be pefectly normal, but I am a worried mama!

One saving grace was Tristan's "glue on the shoulders" trick. Sekwaf was so busy messing with that drop on his shoulder yesterday, he didn't have time to even think about his tummy. One difference with the incision may be that (per Dr. Pie) Alice didn't use anything to close up the very outer layer of skin. I'm hoping this is fine & that she won't have to clean anything up tomorrow.

Hi Gina and thanks for the update. I am glad the DR, did not have to amputate (and Sekwaf probably is too-LOL).
I hope he does well with his after surgery healing.

I am happy to hear this too... and you may have previously addressed this in another post I haven't seen, but is his name "Fawkes" in reverse? As in Dumbledore's phoenix? If so, that is a neat idea, and I like it regardless!

Gina got Sekwaf after she lost her beloved Fawkes. Yes, it is Fawkes spelled backwards but Linda also found this...

Quote:
If you spell Fawkes backwards, Sekwaf. In the Cochiti Tribe the meaning of Se'-kwaf means 'light of the heart'

If we never loved, then maybe we would never feel pain. Love anyway. It's worth it.

Thanks Guys! hug2

He went back to the vet yesterday for a check up - he is healing perfectly!

His pee pee has made a few appearances, but for the most part, he is keeping it in. He is now completely out of the ecollar & the hospital cage - you would have thought the poor boy was in Disneyland that first night in the regular cage! I am on night 2 of only checking him once at night as opposed to every hour. I feel like a sleep glutton! I had to get up at 7am this morning because I just couldn't make myself sleep any longer, I'm just not used to it!

He is still on the antibiotics & gabapentin until Friday, then he should be completely med-free for the first time since Dec 4th! That will be nice because he absolutely HATES the gabapentin, I get the idea that its very bitter.
