    TopCat3, thank you so much for helping this poor boy. I hope that he'll continue to do well and be able to go home with his family. Lots of prayers and positive thoughts are being sent his way.

    Leo update - good news!

    Thank you everyone for your interest and loving prayers. I spoke to his Mum this evening.
    Leo is back home with his family now (Mum, Dad and brother Milo) and is doing quite well. He is still a bit wobbly, but he is eating, toileting, sleeping a lot and occasionally taking a gentle stroll in the courtyard enjoying the sunshine and water features. When he looks a bit tired he is carried back indoors and gently laid on his bed or a cushion for another healing sleep.
    His brother Milo is being solicitous and giving him lots of healing, loving licks on the head.
    His left eye is affected, there is a blood clot there, the 3rd eyelid is across and they are waiting to find out if his vision will be partially or totally lost; there could be retinal detachment.
    His blood tests showed the enzymes were high ( not sure which enzymes or what they are, but anyway... ) which could mean possible liver complications or something to do with the muscles.
    Well, I don't know about you, but if I'd lain on the road and been buffetted around like he was, my muscles would be very stiff and sore, so let's hope that's all it is. X-rays show no broken bones and he has no cuts/grazes whatsoever. One lucky kitty. More news Tuesday.
    His mum said I was welcome to post the pictures she'd sent me, so I'll do my best, you know this isn't my strong point computer-wise, but here goes:
    Leo is the paler of the two, the one with the blue leash in the garden shot.
    His Mum and Dad are very thankful to all of you who have sent your prayers and good wishes. And so, I'm sure, is he. Thanks everyone.

    Special prayers and good thoughts going out for Leo. I am glad to hear he is back at home with his family.

    Thank you for stopping and saving this special boy, he could have been run over time after time if you had not stopped and took him to the hospital.

    That would have been a horrible experience to sit in the highway, with cars running over the top of you like that! I just know he was so scared, and didn't know what was going to happen next!

    I'm so glad to hear that he's doing well and is now home with his family. Both he and his brother sure are gorgeous.

    Oh Leo, when I see you and Milo together I know how horrible it would have been if you hadn't been found in time. Continuing to think of you and keeping all paws and fingers crossed that you continue to improve, sweet boy.
