Mrs D- thank you for responding- I hoped you would. I suspected you would know about this condition that I had never heard of. Saddle clots don't happen in people as our vessels are so much bigger.

I would have had G euthanized w/in two hours but SO was not ready. We are a team so that is the way the decision went w a promise from the ICU doc to be generous w the pain med.

Last time I was down to 2 cats, G. showed up on the patio and stayed for 2 weeks until I finally let him in in a bad rain storm. I am back down to 2. They are litter mates and are now 8 yo indoor cats. So, I think I am staying at 2 but you never know.
