This afternoon we took Luke to the vet, yes right in the middle of the Super Bowl. The vet did an x-ray today to see how it is coming a long and we had some good news! His leg is healed so no more cast!
But there was some not so good parts. His leg and foot are pretty nasty. His paw is huge and he has some sores from where the splint was rubbing and some puffiness so he is on antibiotics. It is really tender so he is walking on only three legs. The bone healed pretty good but he does not have the full range of motion that he does with his other three feet, it is more stiff and does not bend really. And he had to get a HUGE cone-the biggest yet-to keep him away from the sore spots.
But all in all I think it turned out good, thank you God!

Boaz (our Russian Blue) had a cone, too, but hated it. Glad Luke is getting better.
