We've just had a phone call from the vet. He's taken the x-rays and had a look at the damage. Trip definitely has a broken leg. Not at the knuckle where it was all limp but further up at the elbow. On the x-ray the vet saw what looked like a slug. Someone has SHOT our cat! How could they???? I am so shocked that this would happen.
Mark told the vet to do what ever needs to be done. the vet said it could possibly cost around $500 by the time they are finished. They will need to operate on him either later today or even tomorrow morning. They need to pin his leg in order for him to be able to use it. Normally they would amputate but of course they can't do that to him sine he only has the three legs as it is.
Considering what he has been through the vet said Trip was quite happy and content. That he doesn't seem to be in much pain and he has allowed them to take the x-rays and touch his leg without any real worry. That's my boys! He is just so loving and trusting!
I wish I could get my hands on the people who hurt him though. They would be ever so sorry that they hurt our baby boy!!
