Thumbs up Otto news!!!

Otto WALKED last night! Like a drunken sailor, but he wobbled across the living room floor before falling over!!!!

And he walked on his pads, he didn't knuckle!

It wasn't a normal walk, but he did it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
.


And if he wants to chase something and you pick him up by his tail, his hind legs are just a flyin back and forth!

I hope this continues!

The link to his story is below. He went down and has been paralyzed in his hindquarters since December. Had a surgery that cost $3000! He had a ruptured disc in his spine.

Otto's story here.

I just went and read your story about when otto first was injured, what a miracle he is! I think that our pets do become as important as human family members, but you have to be there to fully understand that. Good for otto!
