Update ...
That was done this morning, and by 16:00 she was sitting up and commentating on her confinement ...
Going to collect her, and necessary supplies at lunchtime tomorrow.
And find out how much our soft hearts are costing !
Just spent some time on reading up what I may/will need to be doing for the next couple of weeks & months.
I got calls back from the local RSPCA / CPL since she's classed as a feral atm, but not sure how/if they can help [there's a postcode lottery over much of the country for both supposedly national organisations - further information in a couple of days, I hope].
Having had a case conference the vets strongly suggested the amputation, having noted that she's otherwise in good condition and a lot feisty !

This is a picture of Matilda, the tripod (no right back leg) sweet girl from across the road from me.
She is sensibly wary and doesn’t stray far from home, but has been going strong for years.
I get the sense that the other local cats like Harry, Napoleon, Bloom, Buster, Daisy and the Red Cat recognise Matilda’s vulnerability and leave her in peace.

I get the sense that other cats leave Matilda alone because she looks like a bit of a bruiser and would probably have them in a fair fight
Matilda is lovely

Got to take Kizzy to the vet today and carrier is still at the Vet hospital :/
There is a blanket in the carrier that was there when Misty went to the hospital and never returned so will obviously smell of her
I don't want to put Kizzy in the carrier with a blanker that smells of her "missing" sister so will remove
Not sure whether to wash it or leave it?
She smelt a bag I found that had also been in/near the carrier yesterday and seemed a bit freaked out/confused/looking around
She is still looking and doing the odd painful miaow

Avoiding the dog appointments didn't work, but everybody was well behaved ...
Just got back with one very subdued & stoned triped feline.
Think she's sleeping, again.
Apparently [and probably due the drugs] she has been very quiet since yesterday's operation. Although seemed to be watching what was going on in the vet's kennels.
I've got my care orders ...

We’ve got a trio of tripods in our street. All very active kitties who’ve adapted well to their missing limb situation. Speaking to the owners of Oscar and Wednesday, they both bounced back pretty quickly from their amputations and haven’t let it get in the way of their daily business.

Picture from street WhatsApp group of a neighbour's ragdoll who has been coming in and making himself at home with other neighbours! He's never come inside ours but we have occasionally have had chats with him outside it, even though he lives at totally the other end of the street.

I think we can safely say that our little tripod is as well as can be expected this morning.
- further update when her current accommodations have been cleaned.
Currently sleeping when not watching us passing by ... she sort of growled at Ben earlier, he backed off but is still staying quite close.
We have some Loxicom for sauce on this afternoon's meal, to make sure she eats it, all she's having this morning will be a few bits of cat crack.
She usually eats mid-to late evening ...
[I'm not administering that painkiller by syringe unless it's the last resort - we would both find that stressful !]

He's fallen out of the car again
Moz is 12 now. Peckham born, raised in Elephant and Streatham and retired to Wales. He has turned up after a brief few days absence, loved up but growling if disturbed.
Off to the vet in the morning then...
