Rat from Space (Poor Kanga)

Get. It. Off. NOW.

...although she can get ESPN now.

I shouldn't joke. The collar is really distressing her (all that porphryin on her face is from the collar struggle, not the surgery), but opening up the wound would be much worse.

Dr. F actually met us at the office at 9:30 last night to give us the collar! He'd called to check up on her, and was worried that she'd chew through our bandaging job overnight. I can't sing our vets praises enough.

Wow! She looks quite chic compared to my rat. Reminds me of the pic of the saints with the halo (dinner plate) around their heads. Poor Kanga, though. If only they could understand you are trying so hard to help them.

I shouldn't laugh. Poor Kanga. She's gorgeous, otherwise. Sounds like your vet is like ours- generous with their time and knowledge. That's nice. Give her our love and good wishes. :)
