as some of you will know max my cat was run over 2 weeks ago im pleased to say he is doing well but he is booked in to have his front leg off in 4 weeks time and im worried that he wont cope without his front leg as he is so active does anybody have any experience of having cats with limbs missing as im really worried he wont have the same quality of life he had before

Kelly, we have a cat that lives near us with its front left leg missing............it manages to get into my garden for a poo every day :- " ...........im sure Max will be fine :huggles:

That's good news, Kelly. I'm very glad that Max has got over the worst.

There are alot of amputee cats around and they adapt very well to the situation.

He will need to stay in for quite some time whilst he adapts and then gradually go out for short periods until he realises his limitations.

I would imagine he will stay closer to home now as he won't be able to fend for himself so easily but that is for the best :thumbsup:

Wishing Max all the best for his op :wub: :luck: :luck: - and also wishing equally as much BAD luck to the ignorant, cruel driver of the vehicle who did this to the poor little chap :rant:

So glad to hear that Max is on the mend

I am sure that given time he will learn to adapt without the leg very well indeed.

Good luck Max :huggles:

thanks everyone im sure he will be ok its just gutted me to think how active he used to be and what he will be like with 3 legs but maybe its a good think it might slow him down a bit and at least keep him closer to home :huggles:

:lol: i was hoping that by having it done catching the poor songbirds would be one less thing he could do but i guess thats not the case :lol:

 

[meddling]

Awww Kel, I'm sure he will be fine...bit of a bugger though...pay out all that money and only end up with three-quarters of a cat... :lol: Sorry kelly :huggles: :huggles:

I bet he'll be jumping around in no time :huggles: :huggles:
