Our three-legged kitten, Peggy, had to be taken to the Vet on Memorial Day. At dinner time I noticed her watching her mother, Miss Hissy, eating and I thought she was just waiting her turn at the bowl, but when Hissy moved aside, Peggy dragged herself to the bowl. Dragged her good rear leg. I had no idea what had happened, but we were able to find a doctor who would look at her right away. Joan has used Dr. Blaine for years and we were able to corner Peggy, get her into Joan's cat carrier and off we went.
Not sure yet what the problem is, but we hope for the best and were impressed how the doctor was able to sooth Peggy who has never been held or petted,. Miss Hissy and all her five babies have been outside, never come very close to us other than when we talk with them at the door when they eat. It's been quite a year with our "children" and the emotions of losing four already and now possibly a fifth. With all the turmoil of the past year........cats' lives matter, too.
