One expensive leg!!

When Soxalone was just under 6 months old,he was playing in a nearby field and managed to get trampled by a cow(as far as we know)he came crawling back home and we rushed him to the vet.
We have a marvelous veterinary hospital very close by.He had to have his leg pinned in places and a stay in the hospital,where we visited him every day.Once home he had to be kept in a pen and keep the weight off his leg until it was fully healed,about 8 weeks.
He was so incredibly good throughout this time and also with all his visits to the vet during this time.The pet insurance didn`t begin till they(we still had the other two kittens then) were 6 months old..he was just under the 6 months.
His treatment cost just about £1000. I never begrudged one penny of it.He thinks he`s bionic now..and leaps from the ground several feet up onto the top of the bookcase,no problem.
People around here refer to Soxalone as the most expensive cat in the neighbourhood;and everyone loves him to bits;but not as much as we adore him.
