I posted in General about my moms cat Figaro. She came home Tuesday night and found that he was dragging his back end. We know he was not hit by a car because he had no broken bone and no tell tale signs like missing fur or torn claws. Instead we are pretty sure that he took a good fall from a tree. He dislocated his hip and as of this morning the vet said he was doing really well. As of tonight, he can not go the bathroom by himself and he can not stand up at all.
Does anyone have any type of experience with a "handicapped" kitty? I know that companies make little wheels for the back legs so the cats can still be "mobile" but I was really wondering if anyone here has had to deal with a kitty like this and if so, can you offer any advice, information, etc.....
I'm really at a loss. I don't know what to tell my mom, I can not find any information on cat paralasis in any of my books.
Any help, advice, or information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks...Meg
