So today didn't really go as planned...

by noon we were already at the vet...yes, on Easter Sunday! Punk managed to jump off the chair and fractured the growth plate in his leg. There were some other big words the doctor was throwing around, but all I heard or understood for that matter was the fracture to the growth plate.
The poor little guy weighed in at 2.4 pounds today and the splint on his leg probably makes him almost 3 pounds now! I guess that's one way to gain weight. :)
He will be limping around with this splint for the next 3 weeks...how are we going to keep this little guy calm for that long!?!? This should be interesting! It will be even more interesting to see how Maddoxx adjusts to play time without her sidekick...

Ruh Roh! You better watch that! Often when you break through the growth plate the bone doesn't grow as long as it normally would! I hope the little peanut heals quickly! :)

Poor Punk! He looks so cute though. Hope he gets better!
