priceless?

1 sore kitty
1 trip to the vet
1 anti-inflammatory shot
1 bottle of pills
1 partially dislocated hip
1 return follow-up visit.

so far the grand total is $53.

our cat has been hobbling around for a couple of days now. we were watching him, thinking that he had just pulled a muscle. after all he is just an indoor cat, what could he have possibly done. well today, he almost fell down the basement stairs. i decided enough was enough. we took him to our vet, and there ya have it. a partially dislocated hip. he said that with the shot the swelling will go down and hopefully everything will move back into place.

seriously. how does this happen? he lays around all day.
apparantley jumping up and down on the furniture proved too much for this feline.
