Title: poor kitty.
Post by: fluffycloud123 on May 01, 2009, 15:55:40 PM

my other half sister has a cat called Tilley who is my Jaspers mother, anyway Tilley came back limping yesterday and couldnt put any weight onto her paw so off to the vet she went.

turns out she may have been clipped by a car (very lucky) and its badly broken in a few places, vet has said shes got 3 options

* try and pin it however its that bad she doubts it will work and Jodie cant really afford that kind of money
*amputate
*put to sleep

so poor Tilley is having her leg amputated  :( :(

will keep you all updated on the progress.

Poor Tilley  :hug:

Cats do very well with 3 legs and my Ducha only has 3 and chases around like a lunatic  ;D

Sorry to hear about Tilley, she was very lucky if she was clipped by a car not to have had more serious injuries :(and as Gill says cats do very well with only 3 legs, i do hope she is soon feeling better :hug:

Hope Tilley does well! Kitties seem to adapt well to three legs, so YAY TILLEY! :Luv2:
