Subject: back problem/found Pumpkin!!
Hello all,
I guess it's gonna be a great Christmas after all. I went to another
vet Sat. for a second opinion. He said that what the other Dr. said was
correct. She has feeling in her back paws and retracts her legs when you
pull them. But she curls her toes in which shows she has nerve damage. She
does have control of her bowel movements but she won't go in her carrier so
I take her out when she is awake and put her in the box for a minute or so
but she lets me know when she has to go. Her spirits are high but it is so
sad to see her like that. On to Pumpkin. When I was at the second vet I
had told him how I lost Pumpkin that she must of got out through my runnings
w/ Ruby. He asked me when I lost her, I told him last night. He said thats
funny, the police brought in a ferret last night. He brought her out and it
was Pumpkin. Hip-Hip-Haray!!! I have gotten alot of great advice so far.
Some therapy like moving her legs and putting her in tub of water. The vet
seemed pretty postive but said it could take several weaks. Has anyone else
had this happen and how did it go? Everyone have a very Happy Holiday and
kisses to all your babies.
