Thanks for the update, it sounds like he had a lucky escape.

We are still sending purrs for the little fellow.

Christina's Tigger update reminded me of this - Let me go back about 25
years...

My ex, who severely messed me up emotionally, had one saving grace (okay,
two, but this is polite company - evil grin). She showed me that I am
,beyond any doubt, a cat person. My first cat was her eight year old orange
tabby named Aladdin. It both bothered her and amused her that I became his
person. I hope I see her again one day, to thank her...

Anyway, on to the story.

Marie's father professed not to like cats. Both of his kids had cats -
Tweety and Aladdin, though, so he tolerated the cats. He loved his kids a
lot.

Her father was a master carpenter, and he had a big, beautiful, shiny new
work truck. He really loved that truck.

One morning, he was backing out of the driveway. He saw something in the
road. Tweety had ben hit and badly hurt, and was lying in the road. More
traffic was coming! He backed his new truck across traffic, to barricade
Tweety from further traffic. He darn near got his truck hit three times,
while he scooped Tweety up and put her in the truck, on the clean, new
upholstery.

He took the day off, went immediately to the vet, and dropped $8000.00 on
fixing up the cat "It's my kid's cat, you know."

From that day on, he was Tweety's number one person, and he would pet her
and coo to her, but he NEVER EVER admitted to liking cats, the old
curmudgeon.

Oh, and he never let her go out after that - to protect his investment, he
claimed (big grin).

Hugs and Purrs,
Mark

I still keeping the little one in my prayers and still sending purrs

Don't worry about the snip.  They did Archer and Ozzy's when they were only
about 7 weeks old.  As long as they are large enough weight wise (I think 2
pounds is the minimum) they actually heal better and faster than if they're
older.

I'm glad to hear that Tigger is doing well - we'll keep sending purrs to the
poor little boy cat.

Hugs,

Poor guy! He really got hurt. I'm glad it wasn't worse, and I'm glad
he's getting better. And I certainly hope they won't let him out again
once the wire is out and he's recovered from his injuries - not until
he's old enough and smart enough to stay out of the way of cars.

Purrs,
Joyce

If he is going to need anesthesia to get the wires out, it is likely better
to get the snip at the same time.  The anesthetic is the risk, much more so
than the snip.

We continue to send lots of purrs and best wishes for Tigger,
