Buddy Boy
Monday, June 28, 2010 at 12:18AM 
Three weeks ago, our semi feral cat, Boy, suffered an attack by a larger animal. We were scared that we would lose him, especially after seeing the xrays at the vet hospital. When we brought him home, we barely dared to hope that he might survive 24 hours, much less survive... period. Once he was over the initial hump, we continued to be concerned about his hind legs recovering full function. He did not move well at all, even into the second week after the attack.
Thanks to the quality care he got at the vet hospital, the skilled nursing from K2 and the good wishes from Blog Land, particularly Jack and Rose, Buddy Boy is alive and well. He still has some scaring on his hind legs and tummy, and some fears about leaving the house, but he has made an amazing recovery.

Been wondering how the kitty was making out. Glad to hear that he is on the road to recovery.
Awwwwww. So glad; he looks great!!!
Amazing! He seems to be doing much better. If you need some more cats, we have six kittens next door looking for a home.
What a relief for you. I'm so happy things turned out well and the dramatic recovery continues!
Yeah! I am so glad to hear (and see) that Boy is doing so much better! I was worried about him there for a while.
Also - congrats on figuring out how to shoot the video,
AWwww, look at him go! So glad to see him up and about! Yay Buddy Boy!
A video is worth a bazillion words .... he's walking great ... kiss the velvet skin where he was shaved ... aside from being amazingly soft to the lips, the kisses help heal .. and Jack & Rose are thrilled that Boy is so much better .. they told me to tell K2 she rocks!
Look at my Buddy Boy go! It was time well spent making sure he had what he needed, even though it happened the week of finals :-p
That's so good to see! I think you might have an indoor cat from now on.
I love it and I think you Buddy Boy has become an inside cat for sure!
