We're all here because we love our furry ones and we're all facing terrible terrible choices. Like Allison says, sometimes people don't make the same choices I make, but whatever they're doing it is because they love their furry ones as much as I love mine. It is a safe corner of the internet, where nobody yells or gets nasty or judges you. So I hope you come back and give us a chance!

Active 10+ Pyr mix suddenly came up lame with ACL tear in left rear leg. Scheduled for a TPLO but final pre-op x-rays indicated a small suspicious area, possibly OSA, which could have caused the ACL tear. Surgeon opened the knee for TPLO but found soft bone. Biopsy came back positive for OSA. Became a Tripawd 9/18/14. Carbo6 with Cerenia and Fluids. Pain free and living in the moment. Crossed the Bridge on 7/12/15 after probable spread of cancer to her cervical spine. A whole lifetime of memories squeezed into 10 months. Here's her story: Eloise
I understand how you must feel when there are lots of doggy Tripawds blogs however that said I am amazed seeing cats and actually love it. I am not a cat person (don't hold that against me) but I love hearing that cats are even more amazing than dogs in recovery and watching them jump over fences like they used to really blows my mind!
I added a photo of a horse also that had 3 hoofs as I was totally amazed by that! I am in awe of all animals and I love this community.
Its the community no one really wants to be in.., but it's a extended family when u find it! We all feel the love for everyone's highs and lows and success stories are what keeps us here.
Please don't leave us we need more cat blogs to help others a long their journeys and I promise you will feel like a family member really soon xxxx
love Dawn
leo, Leah and Brad xx. All Tripawd and all happy to be part of this amazing community!
