Title: kitten 5 legs Emily
Post by: Teresa Pawcats on September 17, 2007, 23:04:50 PM

Got called out tonight to a little kitten who had shot into someones house from busy road. None of the residents seem to own her,looking at her neck I would say she has been used to wearing a collar yet shes only about 9weeks old.
Looks like she has 5 legs

Had a gut feeling about Emily, she appears healthy but something was niggling me, a little warm maybe, or a little quiet I dont know anyway took her to the vets this morning to be sure, her temp is almost 104 so she has had antibiotic injection. I thought her tail happened at birth but vet says no its an injury.

Those who have visited Paws Inn have seen the results of me amputating the tip of Busters tail many years ago; I was sick with worry and felt guilty for a long time; nowadays I laugh about it,he forgave me.

Am so glad I went with my instinct and took Emily to vet, she is very subdued and not a well girl though she is eating.

Emily is gorgeous T, I am sure once she heals and is feeling a little more pucker she will attract some wonderful new humans.   :hug:
