The cat came back

[Jilly_in_VA]

Tonight I went down to leave food for Winnie, who has been making herself scarce in the past week, and to my complete and utter shock, Vicky crawled out from the woodpile. Literally crawled, because something has happened to her. One of her back legs is dragging, and the other isn't working well. Either she was hit by a car or she was attacked by something. She also sounds pretty awful with some kind of respiratory thing. But she was very hungry and inhaled the food I put out. She also let me pick her up, which she never does, and carry her inside. I have installed her in my studio, despite the fact that spousal unit does not want cats anywhere in the house, with litter box. a box to sleep in (that cat loves boxes!) and water and some dry food, which she was happily crunching on when I left her. I figure if she is eating she will be okay. I hope. First thing in the morning, trip to the vet. But she seems happy to see me and I am crying with relief.

1. I'm glad you have her inside. It's possible there's a blood clod

pressing on her spine. Have vet check her heart.

3. Not the way she looks

The more I watch her, the more I'm sure she was attacked by something. I had another cat that was attacked by dogs and although he was grabbed differently it was kind of similar. She's definitely happy to be home though.

2. You handled that perfectly!! I don't know VA law, but I have had to remind my spousal unit.... in

past, no longer.... that we live in a community property state and right now I'm claiming whichever room the rescue needs as part of my half! At some point, it sunk in that he was not, in fact, master of all he surveyed and he actually led me to rescues!!!

4. Sending hugs and vibes for healing. I'm glad to hear she's back, but

so sorry to hear she's apparently injured or suffering a saddle thrombus.

5. Good for you!

Your title reminded me of a favorite 'kid' song......

At least yours knew where it was wanted!

10. And here she is

All snug in her box. She is not amused to have her picture taken. I have a feeling getting her to the vet will be a shitshow.

Hope you don't lose too much blood getting her into a carrier and that it's nothing too serious and that she heals up well.
