Buster's having surgery right now to get spayed. She was supposed to have been spayed by the Los Angeles shelter that found her in January, but either they never did it or they did a crappy job because Buster went into heat last week -- yikes!
We noticed her hooha was looking a little weird and swollen and then realized that she was bleeding. At first we thought there was something really wrong because going into heat never even occurred to us...But, Buster proved once again that she is truly one in a million!
Poor Dr. Ikezawa looked so frustrated when we came in -- she easily could have taken care of this one of the other times she had operated on Buster, but now we have to do another surgery. The positive thing in all of this is that this could potentially cause the little lump on her mammary gland to clear up on its own!
I talked to Sarah at Boxers and Buddies and she sounded really frustrated, too -- she says everytime she hears from me, she just waits to hear what's wrong with Buster. :( Poor Buster. But it made me feel better because she said that she is so happy that Richie and I adopted Buster because anyone else would have returned her by now.
At least I don't think that all of poor Buster's issues have soured Richie on adopting...He just e-mailed and said he thinks we should adopt this poor guy! I really wish we could, but I think we're already on the verge of being evicted -- once our landlords see the blinds that Buster's chewed up, we'll be out on the streets!
