Sasa update...................today she seems to have improved thank goodness so maybe the antibiotics have kicked in.

Cheeky madam came in here to ask where her food was a while back, so thats a sign she is feeling better  ;D

She now has two fat blankets to lie on by the door so she can watch in comfort  :rofl: :rofl:

The next stage will be, does she forgive me enough to stop running away at the sight of me moving   :evillaugh: :evillaugh:

Gill,

I have only just seen this but wanted to say that I hope Sasa is feeling a little better tonight and has managed to eat a little.

Thinking of both.

She doesnt seem too good tonight and is having probs walking again, also eating I think cos she cant get down to food, note to self must raise her dishes...........I think where ever it is sore is getting stiff and she has been lying on her side which is not Sasa at all.

I wonder if she has a muscle pull that maybe making it worse.

I am hoping that the antibiotics are kicking in and maybe she will feel a bit better tomorrow,

She is still in front room guarding the door but at least she is still in the warm.

Thank you  ;D

She has decided its warmer in the front room but is guarding the door. I have decided to leave her on her own until she decides she  wants to  play again or something.

The main thing is she is in the warm and I know where she is, its bitterly cold out side.

Just catching up with this.

Gill I hope Sasa realises that the fact she is home is a good thing. Sometimes the repetitive motion of coming home all the time makes them feel a little more secure.  Just give her time, but more importantly don't rush things for yourself. She's there, and so long she knows she can escape to her own little world she'll be fine.

I hope she gets on the mend soon   :hug:

No Ruth , blocking the flap off is not a good idea cos Sasa needs to know she can get outside. She is not an indoor cat and eventually she would get out and run away and hide and thats not a good idea at this time of the year.

When she does that then there also it is also no good lookingh for her cos she will go further if you call her or she sees you getting close and CPs advise when she ran away for a week was to not call her, dont look for her because she will come back when she is ready and she did, but it took a week.

She is such a scared cat and has lived with ferals so can hunt and survive outside.

I dont like it when she punishes me by running away, even if its only for 24hrs.

Started typing this about an hour ago LOL cos been on phone but Sasa is in the front room watching the door.......she is just so scared  :(

Ruth, I think Gill scared of completely freaking Madam Sasa out.  I suggested that earlier in thread but I think Sasa is a bit of a one off when it comes to having outdoor access (a bit like Gandolf RIP who would throw himself at the window if he realised the flap was shut so not really a one off then  ;))

Gill, all I can say is  :hug: and hope the little Madam starts to chill out a bit too much in the garden and your cold kitchen and decides to find a bit of warmth soon. Has she eaten anything?

Im having a thought here!......yeah I know "shocking" lol!

What about going round the back of the house and blocking the flap off from the other side? Thats if you can get round via another door  ;)

I think she was in most of the night but stayed in the kitchen which is freezing cold even with the heating on, as it was all night.

She is still out side at the moment all though every where is frozen and if even look at her from 10 metres she is gone, she hates me at present inspite of steam tractor Purrs when I was stroking her yesterday while she was trapped in a corner.

She loves being stroked but is too scared to let it happen normally and all the work to get her to play round my feet has gone and it will takes months to a year for us to get back to that point..........sigh.

I hope she is feeling better but am a bit worried about her tail end but thats also where the injury was, at top of back of one leg. It seems even Sasa didnt run awqay quick enough that time!

I wish she would stay in the house cos neighbour not taken their car out yet, but she is just too nervous and scared and has to keep trying the cat flap to make sure she can still get out.

What a worry these cats can be ...........sigh

Aw Poor you, Gill, and poor Sasa  :hug: :hug:

At least with her popping in and out you know she is staying close to the house, and she is gaining confidence that you're not going to cart her off again so hopefully, by now, you have both had a good night's sleep.

Hope Sasa recovers soon, and well done for standing your ground with the vet!

I will blow her one, thanks  ;D

Yes you right dawn and this vet says he thinks covenia kicks in a bit slower than say oral tabs but he didnt think I would want to get tabs into her..........so right cos it would be impossible  :rofl: :rofl: 

She has also been given metacam to help with the pain but just have this feeling that she is not using the tray, as it were, cos she is going in and out like a yoyo, probably the sedation. She may just be checking to make sure the cat flap works tho!

I think we are all upset tonight cos its been a horrible day but I am so pleased to meet that vet and know they run a 24/7 emergency service, that was a real find and probabaly will take Sasa there for the future cos they were so sensible about me catching her and then saying to ring them.

Although my other vet does that, I then have to fight with reception when I ring which is useless.

Glad you managed to get her to the vets Gill, it's a nightmare when you have a poorly feral on your hands, I don't know whats more stressful  :hug:  The meds shouldn't take too long to kick in, Sooty was feeling very sorry for himself when I took him to the vets last night and was moulting like mad when I got there, a sure sign of stress but today he seems back to his old self, still limping a bit but feeling a whole lot better.  Hopefully she'll feel better tomorrow and will soon realise her vet visit was for the best  :hug:
