So, we had 5 sick cats, with 3 different medication schedules. We made a chart to keep it all straight.
Cordy went back for her X-ray and sure enough, we needed to schedule surgery. She went in on Friday, and stayed overnight, which gave us time to prepare our bedroom for her to convalesce in.
Its so overwhelming trying to care for everyone in completely different ways, but there's no alternative. You do because they need you.
Cordy is recovering well, and basking in all of the solo attention she's getting. She was our first and she had us all to herself back then. She's taking it easy and getting spoiled. Her favorite treat is Whiskas Cat Milk. Tip: We asked for liquid antibiotics, so we could mix it in with her Whiskas milk and she drinks it of her own accord. Much easier than the alternative, because after a couple of days of forcing medicine into her, she becomes frightened of us and hides.
Now if only she'd stop licking the wound, otherwise we'll have to put a lampshade collar on her...
