Ah, so that is where "vixenroo" comes from! I always wondered about
that.
No, Patches definitely is better, just not completely better. She is acting
normal, rather than hiding, and her limp is much less pronounced. It's still
there, though.

Hi Michelle, I have been dealing with Bandy's limping for almost 2 months now...At first, I am sure he hurt himself by jumping down from his cat tower. Since he doesn't have much depth perception cause of his eye disorder...Now he waits for me to get him down..But the last 2 or 3 episodes of the
Thanks, Kerry. I gave her MSM in addition to the Metacam last night. She is
still limping some today, but way less, and she is otherwise acting normal--
even jumping (I keep helping her down). I hope she is actually healing
from whatever it is, and not just feeling a little better from the
Thanks, Nina. Timely advice (sorry you had to go through it!).
Patches does seem better today, knock on wood. I work an hour away, so difficult
to come home mid-day to check, but my mom came and checked for me. I am
hoping she will be completely better within a few days.
Why would I jump
Michelle, Glad to hear Patches is somewhat better...so maybe he just jumped and hurt it.. Bandy is scheduled for IR next Monday morning..Our local vet is out of town all week so I didn't want to do it while she was gone. His limping (knock on wood, too) is better right now...so I hope we can
I'm very pleased to hear Patches is doing better today. You say "does
seem", does that mean it's not drastic improvement? I'm so glad you
have your mom close by now. I love that woman.
I lost my beloved Vixen Roo, (Siberian Husky), to a brain tumor. I
knew something was wrong at least a week
This afternoon, after an active day running around outside and seeming fine, Patches suddenly started limping on her left hind leg. I felt it all over and could not feel anything. Shew was still walking, and going up and down stairs. When I pet her back, she tucked her tail a little. Later the
Michelle,I had this happen before and they told me unless there was a break there was nothing to be done except confine him (in my case) and give pain meds if it seemed necessary. We didn't do that. Unless you think something's broken I think Patches can wait till you get off if you can't go
Thanks, Tonya. I don't think anything is broken-- no swelling, she puts a
little weight on it, and she lets me palpate it. My worry is that there
might be something other than an injury that can cause this. I did some internet
research and it said some auto-immune disorders can do this, but
It was a week or so. I felt bad because I was chasing him off the top of a piece of furniture and he evidently landed wrong when he jumped down[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:Thanks, Tonya. I don't think anything is broken-- no swelling, she puts a little weight on it, and she lets me
So you knew it was an injury. I didn't see Patches do anything. But
she is rolly-polly and has always been a bit uncoordinated, so I suppose she may
have. she just came out a few minutes ago when she heard me in the kitchen, and
wanted some food, and then walked around a bit (limping
Why would you jump to the idea of a tumor on her spine?? It seems much
more likely that she's injured herself somehow. Is she putting any
weight on it? She's still eating, so that's a good sign.
Let me tell you a little story about spending yet another late night at
the vet's, (the second
