I took a picture of Cena as we were laying on the trampoline. I had no idea he had his tongue stuck out! He is doing so well for it to be only one week since his incident. He is trying to get up, but can't get his back legs under him. His right front leg is stronger, but his left front leg is still useless, but had resistance to it when I tried to move it. He flexes his claws on his right front and back legs. He reaches back and licks his back leg now. He is still eating and drinking on his own. When I stand him up, he can get his right front and back leg in position, but his left back leg still does not move right to stand on it and his left front leg still gets in the way since it just hangs down.
Cena still does a lot of sleeping while he is healing. After he's been active, rolling over, scooching around, or eating, he lays down and takes a nap.
This is Cena holding his head up. When we feed him, he can prop himself up to eat, and he drinks out of a shallow watering dish on his own. I am sure hoping by next weekend there is a lot more improvement! He tries to get his back legs under him. If he could get more control of his left back leg, I think he could get up on his own. When we carry him around, he is able to hold his head up and look around for an extended amount of time now. He is making great strides!
