Thanks everyone. Angeleyes also got a new cast... she started tearing at it last night. I called the vet this morning and got an appointment for her too.... they showed me what her leg looked like without the cast -- its so much smaller than the other leg! They put on one that was easily twice the size and this time its purple and looks so pretty with all her black fur. We still haven't scheduled her surgery either... I know what they are doing. They are trying to stretch this out as long as possible so that I say, "ok folks, she's staying with ME." which might not take too long since I've discovered that she's the most loving sweetheart and I'm of course falling head over heals for her TOO! Did I ever mention how hard fostering was? did I? Thank goodness that the rescue's coordinator keeps insisting they will pay for the surgery no matter what (its a $1200 affair! ) GuessI'll have to do a lot of cat portraits as donations to make up for it

I also feel l am living in a leg infirmary ward... Fluuter, Angeleyes, and now Nicki. Look at the poor newest patient with her bandaged paw.... everybody please feel VERY sorry for her, since she's been limping around like a sad puppy and bumping into everything because of her E-collar (I took it off when we went outside) She got stung by a bee and had a bad allergic reaction to it... then proceeded to chew half her paw off in an attempt to itch it Gotta love my big baby!
