Poor Zoey needs surgery... 1 Attachment(s) :( So yesterday morning around 11:00, I hear the worst sound any of us can ever hear... My baby Zoey screaming in pain. I ran into the living room where she was and see her sitting on the floor with her front paw up not putting any weight on it. I called my vet's office and they stated they could see her at 2:00 when the doctor returned to the office. I took her in and her leg was pretty badly broken. She needs to have a $1900 surgery either tomorrow or Friday of this week to repair the leg. I am a wreck right now. Zoey seems to be doing ok. She's a strong little girl. She didn't even cry at the vet's office when he pushed the bone straight to temporarily splint it. I think she's enjoying all the special attention she's getting right now. Doc said it is going to be a long road to recovery. After surgery, she will need to go in weekly to have the bandage changed and xrays to ensure the bone is healing correctly for the next 8 weeks. I'm not going to be sleeping much for the next 8 weeks. Zoey on the other hand is soaking up as much lap time as she can get! (Sorry about the blurry photo/bad hair day - I don't look any better!) |
Oh no poor Zoey. Prayers for her surgery and fast road to recovery. Do you know how she broke it? Did she jump off something? This alwasy scares me, no matter what size they are. |
I'm not sure how she broke it. I was on the opposite side of the house when it happened. The vet said it almost looks like she got it caught on something, but I'm thinking she may have jumped off the couch or something and landed wrong because there was nothing around for her to catch it on so it's a mystery :confused:. |
Poor thing! She looks cute in her purple cast though!! |
Thanks! The vet picked it out. He said she deserved purple because she's a little princess and royalty wears purple... He's a smart guy! ;) |
oh poor Zoey. I hope all goes well with the surgery and she is on the mend soon. Gosh this scares me so much. Our furniture is pretty low but I still don't like Ziggy jumping off it. But he just wont listen and does it all the time. Arg, I am going to try and find a way to stop him, this seems like a very stressful and expensive thing to go through |
Aw, poor baby:cry: Sending good thoughts for a smooth recovery for your darling baby. She's so cute:love: |
Oh gosh, I hope you can figure out how Zoey did this. Poor baby I am praying that she heals fast. |
That's so sad. I hope she has a successful surgery and a good recovery. |
Sending our thoughts and prayers for Zoey's speedy recovery. I have a Zoe also who is the light of our life. |
Poor Zoey. I hope she heals quickly and surgery goes smoothly. |
Prayers for little Zoey. Let us know how the surgery goes. |
I will keep poor Zoey in my prayers. |
Saying prayer's for Little Z oey and her Momma. Hoping for a speedy recovery. Give your little girl a hug from us all.:animal-pa |
sending prayers and well wishes for zoey's successful surgery and complete recovery. poor little baby girl but it sounds like she is very brave! please keep us posted. |
No surgery as of yet. The vet had to bump ours because of an emergency surgery needed to be performed on another of his patients. Zoey is still doing great. She doesn't seem affected by her injury at all. She's being more snuggly if anything. She's on oral pain meds which are helping. But she's still her spunky self. I have to keep her from walking around too much so she has been relaxing with me a lot. I will keep you guys updated. |
The vet should be calling me later today in regards to fixing my baby, so I'm anxiously waiting by the phone... |
And thank you all for the well wishes and prayers! They are greatly appreciated!!! |
oh my.. you poor thing!! I do know that sound.. I have heard it this month also. I am sorry that I did not read your post till now.. I sure hope Zoey does well. I may have a large vet bill also, have looked into care credit and weighing the options of taking out of savings or paying over time..I hope you work it out also!!! And most of all... I hope zoey does well!! |
Hi:) Just checking on you and Zoey. I hope you've gotten good news about her surgery! Hugs! :love: |
Surgery went well. She's a little fighter! She was chewing on her splint some but luckily she will be going back to the vet to get it changed soon. Thank you all for the prayers and well wishes again! Now we just have to pray for a swift and successful recovery period. 7 weeks to go!!! |
I'm so sorry to hear about Zoey but glad she's had her surgery now and is doing well. I hope that her little leg heals well. She looks like a little darling. :) |
Thanks. So far no complications... as we speak she is trying to figure out how to chew on a bully stick holding it with only one of her front legs. She's such a sweetheart, and I'm glad she is coping well. |
I'm glad she is doing as well as can be expected at this point. I hope she continues to do well.:) |
