My youngest son moved back home yesterday with his male cat Sades who is all gray with yellow eyes and is 1 1/2 years old.
We have him locked in the room as we are doing a slow intro with my furbabies.
Apparently he tried to get to the top part of a section of the wall unit and pulled it down on him. My son yelled to me that Sades was hurt. As I ran to the room, my son was getting Sades out from under a desk and I told him to put him down on the floor. While checking him, I noticed his breathing was laboured and he was making like a gurgling sound and he was very limp. Called the vet, who is about three blocks from us, thank goodness they were still open, and we rushed him in. Upon the vet examining him he said he would have to do x-rays cause he suspected that one of his lungs was deflated. He landed up taking 2 x-rays.
To make a long story short, he said there was nothing broken, his lungs looked good and there was just some contusions on his lungs and that he will be fine, but we have to keep him quiet and keep an eye on him in the next 24 hours.
By the time we got home, Sades was breathing much better. Phew.
Oh yeah, the section of the wall unit is lying flat on the ground for now, until we can support it to the wall.
Not a very nice welcome to Grandma's house was it sweetie.
I'll let you know how he is doing tomorrow.
Sorry this is long guys, but first time grandma here.
