My big brofur Apollo
Please send love and prayers
To my brofur Apollo
His hind legs don’t work
Hey Efurrybuddy, some of you know from my Facebook page, but my big brofur Apollo is not doing well. He is Siamese and was born with hip dysplasia. Mama did lots of kitty PT (physical therapy) and Reiki healing with him when he was a baby (and when needed since), and that helped him to have a very active life of tree-climbing and adventures. But the past two years his hips have been increasingly arthritic, and this past week he has not been able to use his hind legs much if at all.
He’s a tough guy though and will just drag his legs behind him to get places, but Mama has been carrying him to the bathroom, and the food dish, and his chair, and out into the garden to sunbathe, which he wuvswuvswuvs, and where he dreams of his divine fiancé Dinnermintz!
Please send prayers, pawyers, and purrrayers fur my handsome blue eyes lion man big brofur Apollo. He is a Sun god in Mama’s eyes!

Aw, sending prayers and hugs!
Thank youwooowooooooooo!
Oh, I haven’t been on Facebook much lately, so hadn’t seen. We are sending lots of prayers and love your way for Apollo. I hope he can get better, hip dysplasia is a tough thing. I will check on FB for updates….thinking of you all.
Thank you!
Mom and I will continue saying lots of prayers and sending happy, healing thoughts for the brave and strong Apollo and all of your family. He is the second kitty on Facebook who has poorly back legs this week. 😦
Love and licks,
Cupcake
Thank you Cupcake and Mom! He is furry brave!

It terribly breaks my heart to hear so. I had a similar experience years ago. There are vests with wheels for small pets. Would this help?. ♥Sending all my love to sweet Apollo♥

My person and I are sending up prayers for Apollo. It’s no fun to have things not work and you and your Mama must be really sad too.
Hugs and sweet thoughts for Apollo.
Apollo we are sending BIG PURRS to you – I guess you’ve dealt with mobility issues all your life and you’re determined to continue moving about even though your legs aren’t cooperating – so we wish you STRENGTH. You have a strong spirit and we know you have lots more sunny days ahead.
