Subject: LITTLE TYKE TX2919 AKA TINY TIM
Little Tyke from Houston AKA Tiny Tim is in danger.
He appears severely deformed - his rear legs stick forward almost straight out between his forelegs.
He copes well, bottom scooting at high kitten speeds and hauling himself up incredible obstacles with his front paws/claws.
His bone specialist consultation Tuesday was very sad.
It is his ligaments - they are luxuirated and will not work. The tension has over his 3 months pulled his hip ball joints out of socket -both of them. He is in some pain all the time and lots when his legs are moved the wrong way.
He said Tyke was not a candidate for amputation as cats do not do well with amputation up at the hip.
The recommendation was euthanasia.
Our Board voted for another opinion. YEAAAA!!!!!
Michelle and Denise have taken on the chore. He is scheduled at the Surgery Diagnostic Clinic on Thursday October 23rd at 10:30 AM.
We need all the help we can get for this kind of thing - it is way over the Board's approved budget - but if you had ever met him - seen the spark in his eyes! Seen him jump carrying those frozen legs to the top of our recliners, and when jumping down - holding his back end up to not impact it on landing!
If you had ever met him - his sweet little disposition - his pretty little Lynx Pointed face even though he got his Daddy's Tabby coat! What a Trooper!
Very feisty - very sweetie - depends what mood he is in-
I pray to the Meezer Gods for this little guy and I know it is "Iffy". They have been so good to us lately, maybe we have used up our alottment for now...
Best regards, prayers and whiskers crossed for Little Tyke AKA Tiny Tim

Thanks for caring - and send messages of encouragement too - we REALLY need those - when he left to Michelle's last night we were stunned by the impact his departure made on us.
