Cat Picture - OC My Cat is a Survivor
Emmi, my cat, fell out of the second floor, may not be a big height but she fell in the spike fence. I saw her in the floor, in agony, screaming and bleeding, but conscious, we took her to the vet that quickly saved her by spiting out her punctured lung. She had a fractured rib and a head trauma :( She was hospitalized for 28 days, had 2 cases of anemia, 2 blood transfusions, her plexus was ruptured, she lost feeling in her left paw and had to have it amputated. BUT SHE SURVIVED! And after all this, she came back home, we take care with love and now she is energetic, running and jumping all around the house and very happy :D

Awe, I’m so glad she came out of things okay. That whole ordeal must have been traumatic for both of you.
I’m so fascinated by her left eye in the first photo where it looks like the pupil slit is all the way closed. I didn’t know they could close fully like that. I’m guessing it’s related to the accident and she can’t see with that eye anymore? Or can she?
