I had to put the cone on Winnie last night. Before bedtime, she got to licking her bandage and wouldn't stop. So she wore it all night. She was so depressed she crawled in her bed and stayed there all night.
I took it off first thing this morning and she has been doing real well. She is more active and more bright eyed than she has been all week. Hopefully, she will get to where she can go coneless at night too. We both thank you for all the prayers and well wishes. :love:
I'm so sorry to hear that her paw has several fractures and that she has to wear the dreaded cone.:( I hope that she'll heal quickly and learn to leave her splint alone. I'll continue to keep her in my thoughts and prayers.
Here's hoping for a good day for poor little Winnie! :love:
Kisses for little Winnie's pawsie :love::love: we hope she's feeling better today..
Winnie is having a snack in the kitchen right now. I put the cone on her again last night. When I got up at 3am for a bathroom run, she looked so miserable, I took it off. She does ok as long as that isn't on but looks so depressed and will hardly move with it on. She doesn't try and pull her splint off but she does lick it some. I think she is trying to wash her paw. She seems to be getting used to the situation though. :love:
I'm sending kissies for poor widdle Winnie's owie paw! **kiss**kiss**kiss** Feel better soon, pretty girl!:love:
:love:We are sending our best love to you. The "cone of shame" (ridiculously entitled an 'Elizabethan Collar' by my vet) is no fun.
Prayers, thoughts sent your way for a speedy healing. :love:
I dunno...the Elizabethan Collars look like they were uncomfy for hoomans too...

Aww:( Heal quickly pretty Winnie.
We are sorry that your paw is sore Winnie:(
We Found Cats hope that it heals up soon :love::love:
Winnie was a very good girl last night. I left the dreaded cone off and her splint still looked like it did last night when I checked her this morning. No pulling or chewing on it. Probably a lick or two but she is a cat after all. :love:
Winnie, you are a good girl! It must be starting to itch, like when we have a plaster on a broken arm/leg.
Heal fast, sweetie! :love:
I heard a funny noise in the kitchen this morning. It was a galoop galoop galoop sound. I was in the bathroom so peeked out the door. Miss Winnie was running from one end of the kitchen to the other putting weight on her splint. First time she has put weight on that leg since she was hurt.
We had to go in for her weekly check up today. She did great at the vets after I finally got her in the carrier. I had to take the carrier apart to get her in. While I was trying to fasten it together, she managed to excape out one of the sides. I finally managed though she hissed at me until we got home. She was not a happy camper.
The vet put a bit of red tape further up on her splint to help keep it more stable and she goes back next week. Now Winnie really thinks she is 'stylin'. :love:
:love: Poor wittle Winnie.. I know that must be so unconfortable.. But just think your stylen in red now.. All will be over soon & you will be a galloopping all over the place.. Just get all the treats & loven you can & of course lots of rest..
More prayers for dear Winnie!
And a candle

Thank you! That is so sweet! Winnie has to go in tomorrow to get her splint checked. If I can get her in the carrier, that is. Last time I had to take the carrier apart. I'd get it put back together on one end and she would sneak out the other. that girl is not dumb for sure!!! :D :love:Quote:

I hope all goes well! :)
Winnie was in a royal snit about being put in the carrier this morning. She managed to get a claw in my blouse and tear a big hole in it. Then hissed and growled at me all the way to the vets and even after we got home. She is feeling better now but poor Chester was so frightened of her, he's still hiding behind the dryer. :D
The vet says she is doing real well and may only need one more check up. Crossing fingers she will get her splint off early. :love:
Miss Winnie is now splint free!!!!!!! :D
The vet said she was doing so well they could take it off early. Of course, it's been 5 weeks since she broke her bones so it's only one week early. She is such a happy girl right now. We both thank you for the prayers and well wishes and luvies!!! :love::love:
Aww Winnie, now you can relax and get back into your routine. :D Heal up completely and don't try any more silly stunts!
Poor Chester - he must be a nervous wreck by now.
Kisses to them all! :love:
Hooray for Winnie! I bet you are so happy pretty girl!:love:
yay!!!! that's great news Winnie!!!! just in time for the Royal Wedding!!!! ;)
Now, be a good girl and be very careful with that paw, ok?
Love,
Sophie and Astrid
Atta girl, Winnie! :love:
Yay yay yay! This is good news!
Oh, that's just fantastic, Winnie. You'll be the Belle of the Ball at the Royal Wedding.. maybe even upstage the bride?!
Yay Winnie!! On to the Wedding!!:D
Winnie and Angel have been talking of nothing else but the catmobile trip all afternoon. Good to see Winnie so happy. She was so depressed wearing that splint. :love:Quote:

Continued prayers for Winnie! And *kisses* for Winnie and Angel, Grandma and Chester, Chuck and Chip.
:love: Same here.. Glad she is healing & happy..

Glad to hear she is doing better.
This is great news!
The muscles might be a little weak after being in the splint. They will strengthen up soon.
I don't know about her paw being hot...maybe a quick phone call to the vet?
HUGS to Winnie!:):love:
She was in here in the front room with me. I saw here WALKING on all flours around on the carpet. Not hopping but Walking!!! Not only that, she batted a toy around for a bit using both front pawsies.
I'm grinning and crying at the same time. What a sap I am!!! :D :love:
That doesn't sound like being a sap to me..........I hear joy in the healing and see tears of gratefulness.
Winnie, you are one lucky little girl - now behave!!!
This is wonderful news!!!:D I'd probably be crying tears of joy too.:)
Here is Winnie showing off her healed footsie. I tried to get one of her standing but she was too busy chasing Chester and the boys. :D
