poor kitty

am up for spin class with Mo...i like this one..it's a smaller group and i feel like we get done fast because i am really half asleep until about halfway through our main sets...was feeling really good this morning and was able to stay on cadence and gear all the way through...did some pretty big spin stuff and one legged drills...i have improved greatly...

home to study for my chem quiz...got that down pretty well and was working on getting the tools etc that have been scattered around the backyard into the shed before we get hurricane winds and rain here this weekend...(we will see...they seem to be really bad a predicting weather in central texas) and under the fence was a cat...

he looked very skinny...and i was worried that he was undernourished and ill...but then he moved to get out of the sun...and i could tell he was dragging his leg...definitely broken...i called my vet...a bunch of animal rescue type places and my husband to figure out what to do...no one really recommended that i try and get it my self since it was hissing when i got near it...i needed to be at class in less than an hour...so i called 311 to see if someone could come and get him before i left...they told me to call back when i got home...i was hoping he was still alive when that happened...

i did well on my quiz...and found the cat had moved to the front yard...still hiding...and now in a position to see that it was not in good shape...i made a last ditch attempt to the cat lady to see if it was her cat...she was home and came to see...no not one of hers...so i called 311 and they sent someone over to get the poor thing...they were going to take it to town lake animal shelter to see if they could do anything...the guy who came to get him was really nice and very gentle...and was able to get the cat in a carrier in under 5 minutes...he looked at me as he was leaving...and said...his pelvis is broken....poor kitty....it broke my heart...i went inside and hugged my two and told them i was very happy that they didn't have to be street cats anymore...

was rather subdued for the rest of the afternoon...and went to pm swim practice at lost creek...had a good practice...swim down 3200...good training day for sure...i'll call town lake tomorrow and see how kitty is...i doubt they could do much for him...
