Khanversations: Pre- and post-op Photos

Welcome!

This blog was created in honor of Khan, the Warrior Cat, to provide his fans with updates and information on his progress. Khan was rescued by Shadow Cats in Round Rock, Texas in 2006, after being hit by a car and found wandering the highway. He underwent several surgeries performed by Dr. Roy Smith at the Central Texas Cat Hospital to restore his smashed jaw, remove his damaged eye, and restore mobility. He still had damaged ears from years of infections, neurological problems, only two teeth, and spinal injuries that affected his gait, but he had a great spirit. He got to know many people, and many others heard his story, during the time he stayed at Shadow Cats and the two years during which we were blessed to have him in our home. This blog is dedicated to them, to all of those involved in his rescue, and to anyone who has helped a cat in desperate need.

Pre- and post-op Photos

I have some photos that I took of Khan before and after surgery. This first one is in the clinic, where vet student Jordan is about to take Khan (in his carrier) back to get him ready for the surgery later in the day.

The second and third photos were taken when I visited him about 4 hours after surgery. He was on heavy painkillers, and in ICU. The third photo shows his IV setup.
