This sweet little Russian Blue kitty was picked by a family on Saturday, but when the shelter tech gave her her vaccination - the tech went too deep, and too high & ended up hitting nerves. The poor kitty was paralyzed on one side. On Saturday she had no feeling in either front or back leg (I believe it is her left side).

On the bright side, today she has feeling in her back leg. On the downside, the shelter needs her out - or they will euthanize. I spoke with my Vets - and they say that she may regain full function of both limbs - or she could have some nerve damage. Both were optomistic since she has regained feeling this quickly - but, said it may take several weeks. At this point she needs help cleaning up & getting into the litter box. She is eating, and drinking normally - and is still super sweet.

If anyone can help, please let me know.
Thank you for choosing us for your Veterinary needs,

I'll call the vet's office today and suggest they post on Facebook's Cerebellar Hypoplasia Cats & Kittens page. It's used for other neurologically impaired cats and gets quite a lot of traffic. Lots of experienced people on there and a few who do a great deal of networking.

Thank you, Lizzie.

That's good. I mentioned the Facebook CH page because I knew Deb kept track of the cats on there. Her networking and energy are amazing.
