Update - just spoke to the vet - he hadn't eaten anything he shouldn't - the blood vessel has just twisted - he is out of surgery and on strong pain killers and antibiotics - he has been flushed out and has had 80 cm of his intestine removed. The next 24 - 48 hours are critical and by Friday we will know if he is through the woods - the risk now is peritonitis.

Have just spoken to the kids - hard thing to do but they needed to know - so keep your fingers crossed and thank you for all of your thoguhts - they help a lot.

So glad he made it through the surgery!

So there was no obstruction? Do they know why the blood vessel twisted?

My girl actually had peritonitis and pulled through, so I hope Earl's recovery is just as smooth and quick.

:grouphug: to you guys, such a stressful time.

Apparently it was something to do with the fact he has scar tissue from his previous operations (the 4 ones from eating riverstones :( ) WIll know more after I have seen the vet in a couple of hours - I want to wait until Earl is a bit more awake before I go there (and also until I have a better chance of holding it all together)

I read about Mindy and that is something that gives me hope that Earl will pull through
