SupraStar 3000 Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 Woke up this morning to find blood everywhere in the kitchen and no sign of the cat. Normally he would jump up onto me for a quick cuddle before breakfast and wave me off to work. From the amount of blood around I fear the worst as I cant imagine anything as small as a cat surviving from losing so much blood. Two big puddles on the floor and paw prints everywhere. Cat was found outside the front door just after lunch in a bad way and taken to the vets by my Dad. Its front paw was torn off and the vet said it looked like a car had hit him. Fingers crossed he will pull through. If he does he’ll need to learn to deal with only three remaining legs. Not a great start to the weekend. Stupid cat. It makes me angry that I got so attached to him and now I feel sick of the thought he might die. Vets bill not looking good too. £500 / 1000 was what my dad was quoted. That's a big dent in the NA-T budget. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jim_supra Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 So sorry to hear this Ed, I hope he gets better. And as for dealing with three legs, my cat had to have one amputated after being hit by a car, and he coped fine. If anything, i'd say he was faster!

Jake Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 My sister's cat; 'Tripod' is missing a front leg and she copes fine. She can still jump up onto the worktop and everything. Looks a bit odd when she's running though. Good luck Edd, hopefully he'll pull through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havard Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 Sorry to hear this Ed!! I have never seen a cat with three legs but I would imagine that if there is anyway of keeping your pet you will do. Hope the cat is ok!! H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
