My yayo is a flame point siamese. He will be 4 in March of this year. Hes the best cat in the whole world 🖤 

2019 he had his back right leg amputated. He went missed for 4 days and came home with tib fib fx. Followed by a massive infection. Fast forward to now - pretty certain he runs faster than he did before. He's suuuuper active. All.the.time lol. 

3 days ago he was laying on the couch when I got up for work. I loved on him and went to get ready. He let out a very deep meow. Not abnormal for him, he's very vocal. However when I turned around I saw him trying to stand. He couldn't. It got my attention. So I shook his food bowl ..he jumped off the couch and landed normal. But when he tried to take a step with that back leg it collapsed.

I took him straight to the vet. Of course when we got there he was running around normal (like taking your car to the mechanic 🤦‍♀️) they thought he seemed to be bothered by his tail. Makes sense if his tail was broke he can't walk as thats his balance. Well xrays were clear. They said his exam is totally normal he is just sore. Give him time. When I went to pick him up he wouldn't stand. I said no way, take him back to the doctor. They did. She noticed now its his sciatica. Here's some onsior and gabapentin. Give him a few days ( this is day 1 no food, no water, no urine).

Yesterday difficult to wake and he wouldn't move at all. Screamed everytime we touched him. I took him back to the vet. Its just the gabapentin, he's sedated - hold it. Also, he has a fever so now we believe he has aids or leukemia. Tested negative. Blood smear negative for infection as well. Okay let's xray the leg. No fractures. His exam is totally normal aside from fever and painful back leg.. We don't know why he's not walking but heres buprenorphine and we gave him an antibiotic shot. He should be better soon.

He ate last night for the first time since this started. Tuna. Not much. Still no pee. Slept all night pretty difficult to wake again but we have been able to get him to eat twice and take about 1 table spoon of water. I cut his bupernorphine dose in half and only gave it this morning.  We have to spoon feed and water him, he's very weak. Still no pee.

Hes holding his leg up, its shakes and when he sets it down he lifts it right back up. His toes are curled in. I think its a muscle spasm?! *important to note he can move this leg and its painful when we touch it. So hes not paralyzed *
