| WILL YOU HELP US HELP LITTLEMAN???? Littleman was found closed in a box on the step of a vet hospital in southwestern Florida. He weighed 2 pounds and had been badly injured earlier in his life with broken legs, ribs, and jaw that were never attended. He was covered in urine and feces, and very close to death. Thanks to the kind vet and the vet tech at the clinic, he received the care he needed to survive. The kind vet tech took him home with her and nourished him up to the 4 lbs and 3 ozs. He could use another pound, but he does not need much more weight due to his leg impairments. Lettleman cannot eat on his own and has to be hand fed 3 times daily. He gets VERY excited when he sees his food come out of the pantry, and he tries so hard to lick it from the plate, but he just doesn't get anywhere with it. He has no teeth and because of past injuries, he cannot eat anything solid. Because of his injuries, it will break your heart to watch him walk, but he seems to be in no pain at all, and can get around really fast!! He even manages to make it up and down the 2 steps into his foster parents bedroom just fine. His injuries are consistent with having been thrown from a car or drop kicked by a person wearing heavy boots. His front foot turns completely sideways when he walks, and his back leg on the same side slides backward in a crooked way. His back kneecap was completely destroyed. He seems to have had broken ribs also. All of this and no medical attention to help ease his pain or help him heal. |
