Oliver's Pre-Surgery Bath

Tomorrow Oliver will be getting neutered and staying overnight at the vet. Yes, that's right, despite Brad's arguments we are having the procedure done. I've read 1,000 articles about how important it is to increasing longevity of life and preventing certain illnesses, so we agreed--why not be proactive?

Although I know it is best for him, I'm a bit nervous. He's obviously never had surgery and we haven't ever boarded him, so he's not used to being in an unfamiliar place. North Shelby County Animal Clinic will be doing the procedure and they come highly recommended, so I know they'll take great care of him; I just have to be a bit more trusting. They kindly let you bring his blankets and toys from home, so hopefully that will offer him some comfort. I can already tell that I will be counting down the hours until we pick him up on Thursday. Say a little prayer for Ollie!
