In December last year my cat Mr. Snow had gotten into a brawl with a big stray dog, who broke his right hand leg and dislocated his hip joint. But he is getting better now and the vet asked us to keep him in a cage as too much movement was causing the healing process to slow down. It has taken us many trips to the vet, not that it's a problem but my poor Mr. Snow was under a lot of pain. At first he was in such bad shape, when this happened, we thought that he was run over by a car but once the vet took a closer look at him, she said that the marks are consistent with that of a big dog's bites.
Mr.Snow has gone through a lot of drama and trauma, in his earlier life, he was a very naughty little guy, getting into fights, chasing females and getting roughed up by other cats bigger than him, but that's normal routine, after all it's all in animal nature but all of this made him so sick and weak that we had to get him neutered...yup thats right...neutered. So there was no more happy chappy for him but it was for his best you see, he was put on medication, food and complete rest and he was all good and healthy until his fight with this dog. Now he is once again on the road to recovery. I am putting up his x-ray when he got hurt and I will also put the one after his surgery gets completed and the vet removes the rod from his leg in a couple of weeks time.
P.S Mr.Snow is very persistent about taking his bandage off , so we had to put a head cone to stop him from doing that and also we have to sponge him, because he can't shower until after his complete recovery from surgery. Below are his x-rays pics
