I'm off to see the wizard. Just kidding. I'm off to go pick up Brandy! 🙂
YAAAAAAAAAY!!!!!! Brandy is a WizKid!!
Happy Hannah had a glorious additional bonus time of over one yr & two months after amp for osteo! She made me laugh everyday! Joined April's Angels after send off meal of steak, ice cream, M&Ms & deer poop!
Purrkins, Brandy has been eating very well this weekend. She has been eating wet food, some dry food, and she begged me like crazy last night for some roast beef, so I gave her some. I am pretty sure her appetite is back! Yay! 🙂
Brandy is so happy to be back home! She came home and ate and drank right away! 🙂
She has a soft cone on, but I will have to switch her to a longer harder cone because she can lick her leg, which now has a stitch on it. She can still wear her soft cone, when she is supervised. (So over night and when I go out of the house, she will have to wear the long cone. Luckily I'm not working at the moment, so Brandy pretty much has my full attention. lol. 🙂 )
Welcome Home Brandy!!! Thanks for the great update. Please keep us posted.

Yay for being home again! The poor thing. What a trooper! I can't wait until she's all healed up for you, but sounds like her spirits are perking up pretty quick.
Welcome home Brandy the Wondercat!!!!
Ruby, Staffy, born June 2022, became a Tripawd, November 2023, adopted January 2024.
Also Angel Tripawd Meg (aka The Megastar), who died in April 2023, aged 14, after seven glorious years on three, and Angel Staffies Elsie Pie and Bille. In the pawprints of giants...
Brandy may not be as powerful with only 3 legs, but her back paw can still scratch me! Ouch! /:
Little butthead fought her meds tonight. /:
Which is good that she is fighting, but it is starting to suck.
And I still have another week and a half of this. Hopefully that will be all.
Brandy's back leg isn't working. She can't walk. I called the vet, but she was with a client. She'll call me back when she can.
Goodness gracious Brandy!! You just love being...er...unique!
Take some deep breaths...yet again, right?? Most likely a pulled muscle, slraiy back...almost aanything along those lines! She must have pulled something trying to scratch those meds out of your hands!
Update when you can.....And don't forget those deep breaths! B R E A T H E!!
Hugs!
