    Wow, Orion has grown! He is an absolutely gorgeous cat. That poor leg looks so sore. I hope he will be feeling better soon. Thanks for posting the pics! I want to see some of Honey too!

    p.s. I am sorry for replying to luckies4me's post. I knew I should have just ignored her post. Sorry.

    Orion is so darn cute!! I was expecting a cast or something!?!? broke his leg, got pins in it, and no cast or anything to hold it together? Wow. Incredible.

    OHHHHHH....Poor Orion! It looks so painful!!!!! KA- is he getting around ok? I would feel better if I knew it looked worse than it was! That looks like such a huge OWIE!

    He is one good looking orange dude, though, isn't he? Thanks for the photos!!!

    Orion had definately grown!!! He weighed 3.5lbs when we adopted him about 1 1/2 months ago and now he weighs 5 lbs.

    Orion is also getting around alright. He limps and babies his leg a little bit, but not too much. He's doing much better than i thought he would do. It does look worse than it really is. His skin in completely healed when the sutures are. Right above the sutures there was a little hole. (see pic)(now closed up) where the screw came through his skin, but now it has formed a callous to protect the skin. It will go away when the screw is removed in about 6 weeks.

    As I type this he is playing around with a cardboard box. lol He's actually running around like a little devil lol! I guess his leg must not hurt him too much. I try to keep him in a large crate some of the day when I'm not home, so that he doesn't jump off of things that are too high or tear around the house too much. Well I must go, I will give another update after I take him to the vets on Friday. Thanks again everyone for your concern.

    Wow! That's even more invasive than I'd realized. So glad to read that he's getting around smoothly under the circumstances.
