Today was our second to last day of surgery, next Tuesday will be our last one. This week it was my turn to be anesthetist. Our group had a cat who just so happened to be pregnant! She was a challenge to draw blood from as she didn't particularly enjoy being restrained and poked. However, we got everything done today and I was able to successfully knock her out, stick a tube down her throat, and get her on gas anesthesia. Mike was the surgeon and he did a great job taking out the enlarged uterine horns. However, after the surgery, the cat took a very long two hours to wake up enough for us to put her back in her cage. Overall though, it was a success!
Hard to believe that we are now at the point where there are only 9 days of class left, we're just counting them right down!
