Tail recovery

Sylvester’s tail seems to be making a comeback. I chased him around the house Wednesday night trying to get a good picture of how he’s holding his tail now, and this was the best I got.

As I mentioned in an earlier post, he seemed unable to hold his tail up in a normal position. We were afraid he had broken it, but our vet said he might have only a sprain. That was about two weeks ago. He can now hold his tail almost upright. That’s an encouraging sign.

I suppose we’ll never know how he sprained it.

  1. Yay, Sylvester. It must be hard to be a cat without a functioning tail to express your emotions.

  2. Minnie and Robin — We aren’t sure he’s going to make a complete comeback. His tail still has a crook most of the time. It looks like a question mark, so maybe he’s trying to say he’s confused.
