Chevy

FROM LAUREN:
Cheveyo, aka Chevy, came down to the Twin Cities from Red Lake Rosie's Rescue in March of 2011.

Chevy had been found at the dump with frostbitten ears and sores on the back of his legs probably due to getting caught in a snare. He's been our foster cat through Pet Haven since then and we absolutely love him. He's a big boy who loves to tumble around with other cats, but he also likes to just hang out on the bed and take cat naps.

Last Sunday morning, Chevy was nowhere to be found when I started feeding the animals for breakfast. This was very unusual as Chevy loves his food. I found him under a dresser and soon discovered that he was unable to put weight on one of his back legs.

He went into the vet where they did X-rays and found that he had broken off part of his femur bone in his hip. He had femoral head surgery on Wednesday and is recovering now. We are so lucky that Pet Haven gives their foster animals all the care that they deserve.

For more information, check out Pet Haven's Cat Blog.

Thanks,
Lauren & Chevy
