Thanks RU friends, a Reader of Books, Jane, Toribun,
We had our first snow today so I left earlier than I needed so I got in the vet parking lot early. Zorro traveled well as while we were waiting for someone to come to collect Zorro, I took him out of the carrier and gave him a great big hug.
About a half hour later a tech brought out paperwork for me to sign and took Zorro and his food. I was asked to wait while vet checked Zorro.
When the vet called my cell, he first asked for an update on Raven. Then the vet told me Zorro was healthy and a bit 'feisty'. I am sure he was scared being in a strange place that smelled like other animals with a lot of strangers like it did at the awful pet store. I told vet about how Zorro was bullied at the pet store two weeks ago and I asked him to check Zorro for anything I missed.
Zorro must be very scared and I worry he will not understand someone 'hurting' him is for the best so he and Amber can be reunited in the future.
I asked for a call once he is recovering from surgery so it will probably be an anxious few hours. While I know it is scary for Zorro to be in a strange place, I know he is in good hands until his pick up time at 4:30pm.
