Baha, I love the way the tape is so scientific :P
But that cat is so freaking cute ^w^
It didn't matter in the end how old they had been, or that they were girls,
but only that we had loved them and that they hadn't heard us calling,
still do not hear us calling them from out of those rooms where they went to be alone for all time,
and where we will never find the pieces to put them back together.
My first thought was couldn't the money for that have been put to better use.
what use? the owner would have payed for it im sure and if they have the money to spare and care enough abotu there cat to let him walk again then all the best to them and sweet kitty
smile, your beautiful
if someone hates you, be proud that youve done something worthwhile enough for them to disaprove of

The money used to come up with the idea in the first place, research and stuff. I thought that if an animal is in that much distress because of a deformity like that then it would be put down.
It just seems a bit OTT to me.
Stop thinking about what I want, what he wants, what your parents want. What do you want?

would you say the same for humans? prosthetic legs and such.. He wasnt in pain he just couldnt move around, it would be cruel to end his life because he was int he wrong place at the wrong time. personally i think i think its a brilliant idea

No I wouldn't say the same for humans. That's kind of my point.

I don't think that its a waste of money.. but I couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. Before clicking on the link, I imagined a half cat half cyborg like thing, with massive robotic legs that maybe breaths fire. That would have been very cool.
I saw this little cat on tv... I say he is one lucky cat to end up being able to walk. My only worry is that the prosticies might cause him pain...and how would we know unless he is in great pain? Fantom pain is common in people who have had amputations. I just hope s/he is okay. The cat looked well on tv tho.
Lucky cat; that's well above the current technology level for prosthetics. Hopefully he'll still be getting around well a year from now. As far as I'm concerned, it doesn't matter for whom it was a success, just that it was.
Lily Lady, when I was young I had a cat who had to have one of his front legs amputated. It did affect him for awhile--enough to have us worried--but he adapted. Eventually he figured out that if he gave her the big eyes and waved his stump, he could have just about whatever he wanted from my sister, lol.
I dont think it's over the top at all, it made a cat walk again.
Apparently he was fine apart from loosing his back legs.
So i think it was a good idea, if humans are allowed prothstetic limbs why shouldnt animals :)

Yes, but so many people are amputees, and many cannot afford prosthetic limbs, thus having to make their livelihood (aka, afford food/shelter) begging or through some other equally humiliating venture because they cannot afford healthcare and we spend our money buying prosthetic limbs for cats?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
I just find it embarrassing that hundreds of impoverished people are already supporting my lifestyle, now I'm going to make them support the lifestyle of my freakin' pets as well?
