Monte is home...

My baby is home! He's OK. He's a little out of it. He kind of wobbled out of his carrier and bonked into the wall when we let him out, but on the whole, it's nothing a good night's sleep won't take care of. He's a little grouchy, but that's to be expected.

In talking to the Vet, she said that she had used a different kind of anesthetic than what was used on Monte in the past. She said that this was the kind she used for older cats and that it's normally very safe. In Monte's case, he just didn't take to it well, so they had to bring him out of it right away. At least they managed to clean the rest of his teeth before he became fully awake and threw a hissy fit. Yep, my boy is a fighter. We discussed it a bit and decided that since his fractured tooth doesn't seem to be bothering him, it's best to let Monte alone for the next few months. The Vet will discuss with the Dentist and see what options are best.

In the meantime, my little kitty is home again. He's a bit grouchy, but lovey at the same time. He'll roll around on the rug like he usually does when he's playful, but then when you start playing with him, he'll meow really loud and run away. We're just leaving him alone for now. I'm sure he'll be back to normal by tomorrow. I'm just glad he's home.
