Last night late, I received a phone call from a young college student (male) who had witnessed someone throwing a kitten from a moving car! Luckily this young man saw that it was a kitten, and stopped to pick it up. He was frantic to find someplace to take it in, as he is a young full-time student. I gave him directions to my house, and he came right over. When I laid eye on this baby I knew she was an ANGEL! It was obvious that her back left leg was broken ... it was dangling. Well, I took her to my vet today, to find out that BOTH of her back legs are broken!!!
I was there nearly two hours while she was sedated (which made her vomit about 4 times ) and while the Doctor made two special splints for her tiny little legs. When she came back up from the sedative, she went WILD!!! The vet suggested she stay overnight to calm down before coming home. She had her belly, tail and bottom shaved, as she will be unable to use her litter box or clean herself. I will have to do all of this for her for two full weeks, provided she doesn't have complications from the splints. (ie: blood circulation cut off, or sores developing).....
My vet called me later this evening and said that baby Angel had settled down and she was even able to hold her, and she was purring! She also had eaten, so that was great news! I will be picking up my new precious Angel Baby in the morning. (As well as finding out what my bill will be)
Please say a prayer for my new Angel .... she will not be leaving my home EVER .... no way I would entrust her care to someone else!
