I took him to get neutered today, left my cell number and kept my cell with me all day. At noon I get a call from the vet saying there was a problem, and they could only remove one testicle because only one had decended. They wanted to know whether to cut him open and dig it out or sew him back up and wait for it to drop. Of course I said sew him back up because the other one was a major deal for such a little guy.
What I want to know is why they began operating in the first place if there was only one testicle decended? When I first got Teal'c I noticed that his sac seemed a bit strange but I figured it was normal for bunnies. I don't know anything about bunny anatomy but even I could tell you there was only one 'ball' in there. So why can't this vet see that as well??? He should have called me as soon as he saw only one had dropped to see how I wanted to proceed, because I would have said don't go through with it.
So now Teal'c has to go back!!! He has to go through this whole ordeal again and he's already completely miserable. Plus he's not sterile so he can't meet Teyla, because Teyla was spayed by the same vet so how can I be sure that he didn't just remove one overy???
ARG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
They gave me Baytril for him. I hope they got that right at least....
