Shakira's big reprieve

Took Shakira in today for his neuter, and discovered that there may be an issue. 
For starters, he hasn't "dropped" yet. Not such a big thing, he's still a kitten. 
Although the vet did mention that he only felt one testicle, meaning the other literally, hasn't dropped into the scrotum yet. 
At this point, not a big deal. He's scheduled now to go back in a month, at which time I'm hoping that nature has taken its course, and everything is where it's supposed to be. 
However, if it hasn't, then what would be a relatively minor surgical procedure becomes complicated because an undescended testicle means additional surgery. 
Anyway, he got a reprieve.
