The Surgery

A cat is given to them for care. The owner waves saying a silent prayer.

A meow of fear is heard from the cage. She has no clue why she’s here. She looks at her surroundings in a daze.

The surgery is set up and blood work is done. She falls asleep; the prepping has begun. The doctor suits up with gloves, mask, and gown and the assistants watch her breathe while the surgical blade is found.

The first cut is made and the surgery has begun. The doctor performs with ease until the last stitch is done.

Pain medication is given as she wakes up. Soft food and cool water is put in her cup. She waits comfortably and warm for her owner to come and take her home.
