Prana in recovery

Prana sleeping

I’ve had a tough week. Most distressing was that Prana had a fall. At first we thought a rattlesnake bit him. Turns out he fell and got a kitty concussion. How did he fall off the roof? We suspect he was going after a bird but I guess we’ll never know.

We were prepping the car for a town day when Thebes found him on the ground meowing weakly. I held him in my arms and Thebes drove to the vet. Thank the gods we were still home. He was barely moving and I feared he’d die in my arms.

We took him to Taos Vet because they have emergency service. The vet gave him steroids and suggested a head injury. He stayed at the vet during the week.

Thankfully Prana’s home now. The vet gave him a good diagnosis. For now we have to keep him confined to the house. He’s already woken us up with he protest meows. I take it as a very good sign that he’s already bitching. He still has sign of a head injury. His back legs are a little wobbly and his head still tilts a bit. But he’s back and I can give him love and tuna.
