Orange condition

[mamculuna]

Thanks to everyone for your concern about Orange. I don't know if the medicine is working or if he's just naturally getting better, but today he doesn't seem to be in much pain (not yowling, anyway) and is able to walk a little without falling down. His back legs are still a little strange--he kind of waddles, but he gets to the food dish, and that's what he cares about. He's old and won't ever be a kitten again, but if he's comfortable, I'm happy. He wants to go out and sit in the sun, and we'll probably let him go tomorrow, because it's a safe place.

Thanks again--it's really nice to know that everyone cares so much about him. I suspect he felt the good wishes coming his way, and he sends many purrs in return.

I am really glad Orange is improving. A little sunshine will no doubt feel good on his old bones. I know it feels good on mine!

I'm so glad he is better. Cats are so wonderful!

Thanks. He's an especially nice one. He so peacefully and politely avoids conflict with the territorial outside cat who won't come in, and never uses his huge paws and powerful claws to get his way, yet is so brave at the vet's office. Reminds me a little of Satchel in Get Fuzzy--I'm sure Orange would donate his allowance to charity, if he got one.
