Ms. Thang has Accident!

Thank you for the support. My regular vet is cheaper and good. However, he's not open on Wednesdays. The other vet I've been using is part owner of the emergency clinic but he's never seen my cat before. I usually just take my dogs to him. I don't like him and was in the process of trying to go back to my original vet.
My best friend has a really good vet but he is almost 40 miles away from me. He's cheap and very good. I like him just as well as my original vet. However, I can't imagine putting kitty through another long drive in her condition. My original vet is less than a mile from my house! I just wish he was open today! That is why I had to get other "subsitute" vets to cover the times I am unable to go to him. Last time it was his vacation. So it isn't necessarily a situation where I don't want to go to the vet. Just can't use the ones I like and trust for a few days.
The kitty is "better". I've got her put into my old bedroom with ALL her supplies. She's been eating some. She's gone under the bed and isn't coming out without a fight! So I may NOT be able to get her out to take her anywhere. I was hoping I could call in some pain meds for her atleast. Maybe the other vet will atleast do that since he knows the vet that treated her last night and I got the x-rays.
My gut feel is this will heal on it's own without surgery. The doctor also suggested that "removal" surgery. He didn't deem it quite necessary. He didn't even mention too much on surgery on the broken side. The last vet said these types of breaks tend to heal on their own. It did and she was able to jump again. This time I don't think she'll be able to jump much.
My cat is normally inside. She was let out so she could sit on the front porch. She has a boyfriend that lives across the street though. She doesn't wonder off where I don't know where she is. Mostly she stays on the front porch or yard. She's never been much of an outdoor cat.

I think it is of a necessity you get those pain meds, there is no way she is not in pain, a break is very painful for human so i cannot see it any different for a cat, i am at a loss as to why you were not given any at your original vet visit or did not think to ask for them, she is suffering be sure of that, so please find a way to get her some and fast.
