look what happened my poor wee cat
Awww, poor cat. What hurt it?
she broke her leg just above the ankle, about 3 days after i'd done the same! fortunately my doctor wasn't quite as enthusiastic an amputator as hers.
we were actually pretty apalled when she came back from the vet and they'd taken off the whole leg, i really don't think it was necessary. the break had refused to heal so an amputation was needed, but i think they went just a bit too far. she's not quite the cat she was, but it's amazing how quickly they adapt.
actually, people come to our house and think it's a freak show! there's her, and another cat with only one eye! and we used to have one with no tail!
