Can we have a moment of silence please...

[undeterred]

Oliver is having his testicles removed in the morning.

[FloridaJudy]

1. Good boy!

Er...former boy.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

2. My dear undeterred!

Does he know?

<[[Moment of Silence>]]

[undeterred]

4. I told him but he gave me a totally blank look.

Could be he's in shock or he doesn't much care. :shrug:

[SeattleGirl]

3. ........

[mcctatas]

5. The night before we got my cat fixed...

the girls walked around singing "We're gonna whack your willy". We are a sick bunch here in the tundra!

[undeterred]

7. I'm in the tundra too!

Minus one degree in Madison.

[mcctatas]

8. I'm in Oshkosh!

-5 right now according to the weather channel, with a wind chill of -15. I am so not looking forward to morning!

[undeterred]

14. Minus two this morning.

[mcctatas]

19. ha!....

-5, I win! :rofl:

[Tuesday Afternoon]

6. snip snip --

and a prayer :)

[BrklynLiberal]

9. He will be a better dog without them, and live a longer and healthier life.

If he asks, that is what you tell him.

[undeterred]

15. I will.

He's getting chipped too. :hi:

[BrklynLiberal]

31. That is an EXCELLENT idea.

I saw a story on TV last week about a beagle that had been lost for 5 years, and was finally returned because a shelter 1000 miles away read the chip he had in him. They were able to find the owners. No one was able to find out how he had gotten so far from home.

[jobycom]

33. So would you, but would you make that trade?

:rofl:

[Arugula Latte]

10. ...

[undeterred]

11. !

Ollie was very excited this morning- he loves the vet!

[Arkansas Granny]

27. That has always been one of my favorites!

[Heidi]

12. Sending good vibes for quick healing to Oliver.

:hi:

[undeterred]

13. Thanks!

I just dropped him off. His vet is Dr. Heidi!

[Heidi]

17. My godkitten got spayed yesterday,

and her "dad" just emailed me to tell me she bled all over the laundry room in the middle of the night. :( So they're back in the truck this morning on their way to the vet again. The vet's name? Dr. Bill. I crack up whenever my friend refers to Dr. Bill. :rofl:

[undeterred]

21. That's scary.

When I was in college I had a border collie that I took to be spayed at the vet school. Late in the afternoon they called me and said "We're really sorry to tell you this, but.... heart stops... we had an emergency come in and we didn't get to your dog today".

[Heidi]

23. Oh, my god.

That's a kinda shitty bedside manner, if you ask me. My heart beats outta my chest if Ginger's doctor even gives me a worried glance. x(

I'm sure my godkitty Brooks will be fine. Dr. Bill said she probably just got some of her stitches out; she was playful and happy when my friend put her into his truck. :)

[redqueen]

16. ...

...


:)

[JVS]

18. You taking him to the doggie brothel for one last debauch?

[undeterred]

22. Nah, just to the dog park

where he's been humping everyone.

[Symarip]

20. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooo...........

[mcctatas]

25. Why do I have a mental image of you sitting there crossing your

legs and holding on to your "assets" for dear life? ;)

[undeterred]

41. Ok thats what he said

when I got him home and he realized what this "operation" was that I'd been telling him about. A few long howls.

[Symarip]

45. We all died a little

When we heard the news.

[PeaceNikki]

24. .

[undeterred]

26. I just brought him home

and there was a few minutes of mournful howling. Then he quieted down, ate some food, and fell asleep. He's had pain medication, so there's nothing to do.

He did inspect himself at the vet and notice his testicles were gone. How can they possibly understand the things we do? I know it was the right thing but I hate hearing him cry.

[Arkansas Granny]

29. After he has slept off the effects of the anesthesia, he will probably show

no effects of the surgery at all. They heal quickly and I don't think he'll hold a grudge. You did the right thing.

[Fire Walk With Me]

28. Why the Bob Barker?

We should teach our animal friends to take vows of second virginity, and to save themselves for marriage. It works with humans, it'll be even easier for pets to "Just say no".

[Sanity Claws]

30. I hope he enjoys his last licks

Maybe put some peanut butter down there to make sure he enjoys his last licks.

[Fire Walk With Me]

32. Great association-builder.

He'll attack mom whenever she makes PBJ for the kids, because he KNOWS what's going to happen to them!

[jobycom]

34. Does he know yet that they don't grow back?

[BrklynLiberal]

37. Hey! Can you believe they actually sell these : NEUTICLES

and they come in different sizes!!!! and "textures"

[Fire Walk With Me]

38. Exactly in the same way a stuffed animal corpse is just like a live one.

[undeterred]

44. My vet and I talked about this and she didn't recommend it.

I think its more for the owner than the dog, frankly. If someone is showing a dog, maybe that's a good reason to do it. I don't think a male dog is concerned about how he looks or what other dogs think- he knows he's had a part cut off and it hurts.

[WilliamPitt]

35. Oh balls.

Shut up. That was funny.

[rug]

36. Hey, me too!

[av8rdave]

39. Tell him that testicles are overrated. He'll be better off without them.

[applegrove]

40. What he doesn't know won't hurt him.

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

42. Mick kept looking for his for a couple weeks

We almost didn't get him neutered, but he started peeing on things when men came to the house.

[applegrove]

46. Yuck. I so don't want to know about pet's sexuality. I just want to spend all my time

looking at the resulting puppies and kittens LOL!

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

47. We thought about keeping him intact in the event he became a good trial dog

He lost his chance.

Anyway, he probably couldn't figure it out. Our bitch is better at humping him than he is. She'll be getting spayed soon.

[applegrove]

48. I so would have no idea what to do with an unfixed cat let alone a dog. And I consider

myself a cat lady.

[peruban]

49. Now he can replace Alan Colmes on Fox!
