Update on Kirby
 

I decided to start a new thread on Kirby's progress since the other thread is titled, Kirby isn't improving, and I feel that is no longer the case!

I'm so tickled and happy and much more hopeful than last week. Kirby seemed to do so well today. When I took him out to potty, he walked much better! He hasn't fallen over while walking in the last couple of days and it is still a pitiful walk, but I DO see improvement!

Today, he did not want to be in his cat crate, so I held him much of the day. He relaxed much more on my lap than in the crate. I was sitting on the couch with Kirby and Libby brought a toy for me to throw. I threw it a couple of times for her and she brought it back and left it lay beside us. Kirby reached down and took the toy in his mouth and was making it squeak! I was so thrilled and told him that I think this is a very good sign! It just warmed my heart!

I emailed the ebay guy about the cart and asked some questions. It looks as if his carts don't leave the back legs exposed, and I think Kirby would need that to use his back legs as much as possible to help build up the muscle. I'm hoping to hear back from him with info. It could be that he won't even need a cart, but time will tell.

Libby is so cute...she is always wanting to kiss Kirby and today Kirby was kissing her back. I thought that was another good sign!

Thanks for your prayers!

Im so glad he is doing better. I think about him when I get on yt and look for updates.:)

Oh Connie,I am so glad!

I'm so glad to hear he is doing so well, Connie! I hope he continues to improve as I'm sure he will.

I am really happy for you that your furbaby is doing better. I have been seeing your post and its good to hear your baby has improved:thumbup:

I am so glad to hear sweet Kirby is improving! Thanks for sharing the good news.

Connie, I'm so pleased Kirby seems to be on the mend. It must be such a relief for you.

oh what great news. Keep up the good work Kirby, you can do it! :)

Connie, I am so happy to see this thread! Isn't it funny how we react to even small little nuances, like Kirby taking that toy and making it squeak. Little things like that, that we would normally totally take for granted, take on a whole new meaning when our babies are sick and frail.
About the wheels. Have you checked the company that made Babybear's Angel wheels?
Hugs to you and Kirby,
Lauren

Connie, I am so thrilled for little Kirby as you already know! I pretty much already said all of this in one of our many PM's, LOL...but I just know that he is going to be better in no time :) I still get a big smile on my face every time I read the part about him squeaking the toy :D It is just so cute!
