Good News! Finally!!

We met with the kitty surgeon this afternoon to talk about Tiger's progress, or the lack thereof. Thankfully, after examining Tiger, he wasn't overly concerned. He said Tiger has really bad muscle atrophy, so bad that he doesn't have the strength to bear any weight on his left leg whatsoever. He said we need to work constantly with Tiger to try to help him regain use of those muscles and in turn his leg. We have physical therapy exercises we are to perform with him multiple times per day. This sounds pretty challenging, but it sure beats the prognosis we heard last night. The surgeon did say that he has nerve function all the way to about mid-calf on his leg, therefore ruling out sciatic nerve damage. He said he should regain nerve function in the remainder of his leg as his muscle strengthens. Wish us luck as we start our therapy routine with Tigee!
