Owie meowmie

Well, MEOWMIE is back from the vet's - Pouncer is still there. He needed to be sedated to take xrays. Yup, the vet thinks its broken, just how bad? Poor Pouncer. How many of his 9 lives has he used up so far?

Good grief... how expensive will this bill be?

Poor Pouncer It looks terribly painful. Prayers for a good recovery, and many head kisses to Pouncer.

[Maya & Inka's mommy]

OUCH !!!!! Let's hope that he doesn't fight the vet to much....

Poor Pouncer, poor meowmie and your Mom! I sure hope you are all doing better soon. If there is anything I can do to help, please let me know.

Poor Pouncer. Poor YOU!!!

That boy is such a trouble maker, isn't he?? (j/k)

YES, he is! Its so weird for me to see Pouncer in one spot, and then still in that same spot hours later (even minutes later... Pouncer never sits still.)

The vet asked me what I feed him. I told them that everyone gets a mixture of weight management and hairball control food. Wieght management because everyone but Pouncer is fat... then I realized why he's the only one of my kitties without a weight issue -- its because he never sits still! He ALWAYS on the move, climbing, jumping, chasing, pouncing. I get exhausted just from watching him sometimes.

I don't know how many times a day I say "Pouncer! Get down!" "Pouncer! Get out of there!" "Pounce... stop that!" "Poooouncerrrr.... leave her ALONE!" Two minutes before he fell off my computer hutch, he was stomping on the printer (and he fell off ) while I was printing something from the computer that mom needed.

I think Pouncer's new nickname will be Mr. Graceful. Because he's NOT.

The vet still hasn't called. I will call them at 2:00 - they told me to do so if I haven't heard from them by then. Its just past 1:30 now. This has been a looong afternoon.

Poor Pouncer, he looks so loveable. I sure hope he feels better soon!

Ok.... just spoke to the vet. MY widdle boy has indeed broken two toes, but they are not displaced, so he just needs to be splinted for 6 weeks. I'll take him back every two weeks for a re-evaluation and new splints.

They are still trying to get a urine sample from his for urinalysis.... stubborn boy refuses to pee. I could have told them that he wouldn't! So now they have to take it from him whether or not he wants to!

One last bit of news: The vet is completely unconcerned about the rabies issue. I just need to "quarrantine" him for 10 days. Which basically, all I have to do is keep him like normal, and if new people come over to the house, keep him away from them.

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

Oh my! I think that is the most pitiful I've ever seen poor little Pouncer!

I'm glad it's something they can fix relatively easy. I'm just curious to see how long that splint stays on him though, especially once he starts feeling better and is up and about again.

OUCH! OUCH! OUCH!!

When will that boy ever learn?!?

Good luck with the urinalysis. Fingers crossed here.
