There's a little gray tabby feral kitten that's been hanging around here. He's been warming up to me over the past 2 days or so. Well, last night he showed up on my back porch, limping. The skin and fur on his right front paw was just hanging loose. I could see the tendons on his toes.
Apparently he got his foot caught somewhere and worked real hard to pull it free.
He's staying overnight at the vet tonight. She said he seems to have a good blood supply to his foot and if all goes well it will heal and his foot can be spared. She sutured a cut on the bottom of his foot and cleaned everything up. After a week or so, she said she'll have a better idea of how well things will go. He could still lose his foot, but hopefully not.
I know he must be petrified. He could use some calming, healing vibes. Hopefully I'll get to pick him up tomorrow. I'll post pics when I get him home. He's a doll.
