Colon removal surgery for a cat?
As a truly last resort, my Manx is scheduled for surgery to remove her colon and have the small intestine re-sectioned. I understand the physiology of the lining cells re-purposing themselves. I would appreciate if anyone with experience could fill me in on recovery time (yes, I already know about the extended bout of diarrhea) Thank you

I have never had a cat go through this, but I can imagine it wouldnt be a quick recovery. I would say at least a month if not more. Just because of the nature of the surgery. Good luck. Sorry I couldnt be more help. Hope your kitty is okay.
