Update on Brock

Brock got transfered to Bethlehem Vets yesterday morning and underwent surgery that afternoon. We visited him yesterday early evening. He was still very groggy from the anesthetic, but recognized us and sat up. The vet has screwed a metal plate to the side of his bone. The vet said everything went well and they're hoping for a full recovery.

This morning I phoned to check on him and they were concerned that he was 'knuckling over' on his broken foot. The vet checked him out and is under the opinion that its temporary as a result of the bruising rather than permanent nerve damage.

I phoned again tonight and was told that he still hadn't eaten. I told the nurse that hes the kind of cat that likes company while he eats, she opened his cage and patted him... AND HE ATE! Good stuff. All things going well we should be able to bring him home tomorrow. He'll be confined to a cage for 6 weeks so he doesn't re break the leg.
