poor little guy. hope he is doing better. my only run in with an emergency vet was when we hit my nieghbors cat with the car, ended up with a fracture on his pelvis but allright and the neighbors didnt want to pay the bill for him (we dont have their phone numbers and they were home, big surprise, but we took him anyways) they said they wouldnt have taken him to the vet and that they didnt have the money for it... so its our cat now, and he is doing much better
sad thing is a week or two after he got better from the accident, we nudered him, and hes been to the vet for check ups a couple times. had only one small complication from the surgery (a pocket of blood under his skin) they drained it and it has finally gone away a couple weeks later... good cat though, i call him my cat/dog because hes so laid back and sometimes acts more like a dog than a cat.
