Hop skip and a jump
« Thread Started on Jan 26, 2008, 3:08pm »

Molly has a terrible time walking. Well she simply can't. She seems to have very spleyed legs and she falls flat on her face then springs backwards flat on her back. all the time flipping and leaping rolling hooking

I have thought about gettin her a wheel cart but then I think that might make her loose even more movement. She falls with such a knock too. Put she seems to not notice as long as she gets to her goal. hoe did you build Roxy's strengh up ? or did she just improve. Molly is only about 3#4 months old. so still have much growing to do. Will she improve with age?

I thought about the cart as well, but in the end decided against it. I did try to walk her around the room, or help her walk when she wanted to get somewhere, but for the most part she did everything herself and kept trying until she was strong enough. She learned to do things like leaning against the wall to walk, and even bracing herself from falling somehow.

I got her when she was 4 months old at which time she couldn't walk a single step. Now she can go about 3-4 steps before falling, and then makes all the way through the living room, hallway, into the kitchen for her meal all on her own, so I would say she's doing pretty well

Well thats good to know! She does get from room to room very well a run often better than a walk tho it always gets a crash landing. And on the odd occasion when the gates been left open she has scaled the stairs using her claws. But her walk is just not so good. Compared with other CH cats she just has developed no tecnique sometimes I even think she's got worse tho I know thats not the case!
I will have to get another video up of her now.
