    Nancy,
    
    Just to let you know, and the kind lady from California.  That I
    received the certificates from Friends Of Animals.  (3) for Females and
    have made an appointment for all (3) December 14th at the Lancaster
    Animal Hospital, near the Lancaster Humane Society.  
    
    There is one problem though.  They don't keep them, without a charge
    (and I can imagine the CHARGE!!!) --  for the 10 day recuperating time.
    
    These are strays, as you know and I can't pen them up anywhere and it
    would be TOO MUCH FOR ME TO HANDLE.
    
    I'm going to call the Lancaster Humane Society and see if they can keep
    them, during that time period.  (Would be apsolutely wonderful, if they
    would totally keep them!!!) -- But according to their recording, they
    are full.  I hope they can do this for me with a small charge and a
    donation, from me with food......  I don't know what to do, if I can't
    have them stay there.?
    
    Just keeping you updated.

|     10 days s a long time.  You would definitely want to keep them
    in for 3 days or so after the surgery.  The 10 days would be when
    they'd have to go back and have their stitches removed. 
    
    Can you give them a room to themselves in your home?  They may be
    just fine.  I expected Jesse to freak out when we caged him, but
    he was quiet and well behaved.  Guess he figured that the food was
    good so what the heck.

| 3099.3 | 10 days, WOW!! | NETMAN::DISMUKE | Chocolate lips don't lie... | Mon Dec 04 1989 16:39 | 11 | 
|     I, too, was surprised that you wanted them to keep them for 10 days. 
    When we had Merlin spayed, we had the problem of her wanting to play
    with her stitches.  I just cut the toe off one of my husband's sock and
    placed it over her abdomen - she played with the strings of the sock
    and her stitches healed great.  My sister, on the other hand, got one
    of those plastic cones to put on the cats head to keep her from the
    stitches.  Merlin only needed the sock on for 3 days.  I'll be using
    the same method with "momma cat" this weekend.
