Thread: Poor Paddington :(

Hello all,

Not good im afraid. his Xrays were relatively inconclusive. There was a slight difference between his poorly wrist and his good wrist however this could have been because of a slightly different angle of the xrays. There was no evidence of a break or a fracture. However, Pads is now in a full arm cast up to his armpit.

His xrays have been sent off to the osteopath (which could cost us £2000 should he need to go to see them).

We have to go back to the vets on Saturday to have his cast changed.

I kind of feel that because they know we have insurance they are going over and above which may not always be in the best interest of Pads.
The vet didnt talk too much about the possibility of it being a strain/sprain but when i mentioned this at the end she said it could well just be a sprain. (but i had to probe for this information).

I dont know what to think.

Pddington is very uncomfortable and clumsy withhis full cast, we have been told to put him in the smallest room in the house and not let him jump or get it wet (two of his favourite things)

Feeling very stressed and worried about Paddington.
