Sam Goes to the Vet

Well, last friday night Sam got out of the house and was gone. So we let him wander and figrued he'd come back... Saturday morning he came back and was limping... could hardly put his left back leg down. We checked it and didnt see any bite marks but it looked like his foot (would be our ankle) was really swollen... So we watched it for the rest of the weekend and he wasnt eating/going to the bathroom/ just laying around all day. Monday I called the vet and they got him in right away. They kept him overnight and ended up doing an Xray on it...He has a hairline fracture so they had to splint it up. Poor guy. Tuesday I got to go pick him up from the vet. so now he's living in the basement so he doesnt have to do the stairs and he doesnt have to hop to far to his litter box, bed, and food. poor guy. We go back next week to see how its doing, and then again in another 6 weeks to have more xrays done on it and hopefully get the splint off ot it. He hate thes plint. he's chewing on it and we dont know what we can do to stop himfrom chewingon it... Poor guy! :(

This was right when we got home from the vet Tuesday
