Please Pray for Winnie - pics added on post 65

[Medusa]

Oh dear, not the dreaded collar! My Yodie had to wear one for 2 1/2 months. Poor Winnie, Yodie can sympathize w/you but it really is for her own good. She might act like Yodie did, too, drama queen. Yodie dragged her collar on the floor when she walked. Try not to worry too much about it; Winnie will get used to it. Right now, she has to heal. I'm so sorry that she has fractures in that tiny little wrist. We'll send up some mega prayers that she'll heal quickly.

Ok, I caved in!!! (are any of you really surprised?) Winnie was so miserable with that collar on and would not even try to eat or drink. She just laid there and moaned. She never did that before. So I took it off and it's stayed that way. I told her if she tried unwrapping her splint it would be put back on. So far, other that a few licks, she's left it alone. It's going to be a loooooooooong 6 weeks.

I just want my happy bright eyed Winnie back.

Oh, Slick, Winnie's baby, Angel is a calico.

Oh poor Winnie, it's no fun having that collar on. I really hope you'll leave the bandage alone now that your mom surrendered and took the collar off.

Moff, you may want to put it on during night.

Winnie, heal fast and feel better soon! Kisses and purrs from us.

I saw this thread earlier but could not reply. That's so sad to hear about Winnie. Lots of hugs and prayers for you both. Hopefully she'll recover soon and swift. Lots of prayers and good thoughts for dear Winnie.

Well I am so glad you took Winnie back to the Vet.. Poor baby has been in pain all this time.. Hope she is feeling much better now with the splint on & her foot wraped.. Nope babies dont like those E-Collars.. Now Winnie you take it easy on that foot & Get plenty of Rest & Treats..

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.

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!

Kisses for little Winnie's pawsie 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.

I'm sending kissies for poor widdle Winnie's owie paw! **kiss**kiss**kiss** Feel better soon, pretty girl!

[Katelf]

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.

[Catty1]

I dunno...the Elizabethan Collars look like they were uncomfy for hoomans too...

[chocolatepuppy]

We Found Cats hope that it heals up soon
