Hello there!
i have a female cat, about 8 years old.
she broke here front right leg, complicated fracture ("Ulna radius fracture" - as the vet said), with some nerve damage (eye iris enlarged).
she absolutely feels her leg and its foot, and immediately reacts to slight pressure on the leg, and also it seems that she is trying to put weight on it.
my vet told me that this should be repaired via surgery, yet there could be post surgery side effects and problems, and there also a chance that if let alone to heal naturally (with outside fixing sock of course), it would actually heal and she could again use this leg.
So i need to decide now between the surgery and let it heal by itself,
what do you say?
please see attached 2 images, one of the X-Ray and the other, of the cat herself.
thanks!
