A Date Change

Chili's surgery has officially been scheduled! He will be having his operation on Thursday, April 30, 2009. I'm dropping him off at the vet early in the morning (about 7:30). He cannot have eaten any later than 8pm the night before, and is only supposed to have limited water intake after that. I'm bringing a towel from home for him, hopefully it will be a small comfort. He'll be staying at the hospital overnight, and I go to pick him up in the afternoon of May 1st. They also told me I could bring him some food from home, but they also have medicated food he can eat so it doesn't mess with his stomach. Not sure which is best for him. We'll be spending the next few weeks mentally preparing (although Chili is absolutely clueless!) At least he'll have a nice break at my in-laws next week while we're on vacation in New York. Perhaps we'll get a little stroller for him, since he won't be able to go on walks for most of the summer!
