hanging in there

miss luna kitty is back from the vet...after spending three nights there, being put under anesthesia twice, and bandaged and shaved far more than she would have preferred. here are photos of her as she looks with her partially shaved body, bites, and purple bandages on her hind feet. i've left out the photos of the badly bitten tail and hind end. she has been drinking water, and i just convinced her (finally) to try a little canned food. amazingly, she is walking, she can make it up and down the stairs, and last night jumped up onto our bed and slept most of the night snuggled up to alan. her purr is getting stronger now that she has been home for a day and a half. noche is highly suspicious of her and won't get too close, but then, she does smell different than she normally does! here's to healing...

****UPDATE***6/13 when i took her to the vet yesterday to have her bandages changed, they found she still has a fever, and i was concerned about how listless she has been...they kept her and are starting her on more and different antibiotics, and doing more wound care. the latest news i hear, as of this morning, is that she may lose about half of her tail, poor kitty.
