Lady Boo needs prayers and well wishes...

[Killearn Kitties]

Oh Laura, I am so sorry to hear about Boo's injury. Poor baby.

Our Daisy overstretched her muscle or ligament or something last year, and her limp was awful. She did not require surgery, but she ended up being confined to one room for just over three months. Occasionally, if she turns quickly, you can see the leg wobble under her, but she is happy and she seems to cope with it.

Beat wishes and healing hugs to beautiful Boo.

i'm so happy to read this and then to find out that boo is doing much better.

we picked up a cat at a no kill shelter that was run over and it was laying on the side of the road (the person said who brought him in).
well his hind legs were real bad and bandaged up.the helpers changed his dressings daily for weeks i was told, and there were huge scrapes all over his neck and other areas.scars now.
but we've had him a year now and his hind legs will never be like a normal cat.he has a hard time jumping up on things but manages usually.he's a good boy...all black (real black everywhere).he was listed as 3 yrs old but our vet said he was in his more in his senior yrs.(we agreed)
but he's doing great.

maybe boo will be ok like our Kevin.I hope boo will feel better soon.

I'm so sorry to hear that Lady Boo has injured her leg. Many prayers are going out for a quick and complete recovery.

It's easy to understand how you feel, Laura. Please lighten up on yourself, you did nothing wrong. Obviously dear Boo doesn't blame you since she's asking you to pick her up so that she can be close to you.

Sending get well soon scritchies and lovies to Boo and [[[[[HUGS]]]]] to you

Don't beat yourself up over it, you did nothing wrong. Sometimes cat's just do things that later they find out they shouldn't have done (kinda like us hoomans sometimes). Boo will probably heal up without too many problems and I'm happy to hear she's feeling better already.

Two of my cats had some limping episodes in the last year. Both of them happened when I wasn't home so I can only assume that they tried to jump to the high cabinet and missed or something. Their vet said that they probably tore some of their ligaments and put them on Dasaquin for a month or so, I was told cats tend to heal up easier and faster without the surgery unlike dogs. The limping healed up and both are now tearing around the house like nothing ever happened an no sign of limping.

The shot the vet gave her Wednesday has wore off and she is back to limping really bad. She will get her pain drops tonight on her treat with her Cosequin in it too.. She will NOT stay off of it, I think the pain makes her restless. I keep telling her to GO TO BED and STAY OFF of it! Stubborn ole gal like me so she don't listen.. I just don't want to confine her to a room, the vet wanted me to crate her Boo would go crazy being crated.. Maybe after I leave to go to work next week, she will quit coming up here since there won't be no one her to pet her and stay in bed! Rie says she never comes up here when I am gone.

She keeps coming up here for me to pick her up and love on her for about all of 3 minutes and then wants down... this happens at least once a hour. She does this all the time, I think to assure herself that I am still here?

Aww, I'm sorry about Miss Boo. I hope she heals up quickly.

About her crooked ear...how did that happen? Because my "loaner" cat I have also has a bent ear. He had what my friend thought was a cyst on his ear and it healed up but his ear is now bent over at the tip (exactly like Boo's, same ear even). And I just love it! I think it is adorable.
