Hi everyone...
Just wanted some advice from anyone who has ever had their cat hurt

their
leg and had to be put in a splint... My 5 yr. old cat, Simba, hurt his

leg
somehow last night. When I woke up at 6:15, he was not home...he goes

out
at night. I went outside and started calling for him and heard a

dreadful
meow coming from my neighbors backyard. I looked over the fence and he

was
there and wasn't moving...I got him and he was having a hard time even
standing. Brought him to the vet and they did x-rays and said he had

torn
his ligaments and put a splint on his rear left leg. They're going to

call
me tomorrow and let me know what they think they should do...another vet

is
looking at the x-rays. Meanwhile, he's been very sleepy today and is
getting around pretty good. He hasn't eaten that much today and hasn't

gone
to the litter box yet. Any advice?? Thanks so much....
