Thanks everyone.
She's doing really well considering her predicament.
I noticed yesterday she wasn't able to use her left paw (broken one) to clean her face, so her left eye was gunky. I cleaned it up for her. I also noticed every time she tried to hop forward she would fall over.
Today, I watched her clean her face with both paws. She also is hopping without tripping or falling. She is a little slower than normal but tbh she's slowed right down these last 6 months anyway so it's hard to tell.
I'm really impressed with how much improvement I've seen overnight.
She's also eating like a trooper. Fighting the medication but that's nothing new! :roll:
She's also learning how to squeeze into small spaces with it. She likes her beer boxes and finds a way to slide right inside, a tight fit but she has always loved doing it. Yesterday she didn't have a chance, kept struggling to get in. Today I found her napping in there
I know they're stoic animals but I'm surprised by how quickly she's showing improvement.
We have a check up next Friday to see how she's coping but early signs look good I think!
