ah
that's a handsome predator.

nice colonial america book also.

 

[minxnim]

our old irish setter had that affliction!

 

[FuSoYa]

yeah she's having a rough time. often she'll be totally okay one second and then the CP just flares right up a second later

 

[lizard]

both my cats experience periodic bouts of CP. And when they're sleeping, they twitch - but I think that's happy dreams of hunting through verdant fields of mice.

 

[FuSoYa]

guys do you know if an animal can die from this??

 

[Josh Seipp]

I don't know but I think your cat gave this to my cat

 

[minxnim]

CP is usually not fatal unless left unattended which may lead to total immobility due to permanent CP (this is rare). in such a case the cat would maybe need to use a cane

crap todd has been unattended since like 8:30 this morning

 

[minxnim]

as long as you uncross the paws as soon as you get home it should be ok. if not, todd may need to start doing push ups! or get a no-cross brace.

is it as bad when dogs cross their front and back paws in kind of a U-shaped body formation?

 

[FuSoYa]

"spitroast CP"

 

[Josh Seipp]

oh god he's gonna LOVE a no-cross brace. LOVE IT.

 

[minxnim]

freddy always crosses his back feet and now he's always hopping around like some kind of rabbit because of it

 

[Josh Seipp]

awww SPITROAST CP

 

[deadair]

i weep when i see him that way.

 

[TheNewChupe]

what does it mean when your dog cavorts like an effeminate brainless horse?
