Since I let the original thread over in Cat General "fade to black", I thought I would start a new thread to update on Max.
Last Friday evening 8/31 -- to my amazement, he tried to jump from a chair in our dining rm. to our "window" btw. the dr and our kitchen. Next thing I knew he was clawing like mad trying to hang on because - he missed. I didn't make it to him in time but thankfully he didn't seem tooo bothered by it. Mommy human has HIM to thank for any gray hairs she gets from now on!
The next day was Max's 3rd birthday! ( I posted that day, but I somehow deleted it before it submitted). He didn't have a good day that day - he screamed/jumped back several times. The next day was much better for him - and a HUGE gift for me (my b'day). We didn't hear a single scream all day. I didn't need to make a wish -- it already came true. Since the weekend, he has been much more playful and silly - something we have missed greatly! The rest of this week so far has been very uneventful and we are soo happy! He still has little "episodes" here and there, and he still walks somewhat gingerly at times, but they are beginning to be the exception instead of the rule!
Considering it has been almost 2 months since his injury and no diagnosis - this is SOMETHING!
