Gus is Hurt
Gus asked me to write this post for him. He hurt is paw the other day; he cracked his dew claw off near the base. It is very sore for him, though he tries to hide it. Mom and Dad say he’ll be fine, and that it will get better in a few days. I heard something about a visit to the vet, but I don’t think that’ll be for a few days.Gus is doing much better now, he even jumped on the couch today. He did get picked up the other day while mom and dad looked at his paw, and I’m sorry to say I was just glad it wasn’t me that they were picking up. But I’m glad that Gus is feeling a bit better now, he says his paw isn’t nearly as sore anymore.
Well, it’s getting late, I’m going back under the bed.

I am having my human post this for me. I had a dew claw nail break, too. I understand how Gus feels. Tell him it will heal soon, but the nail will take a long time to grow back to its old size.

Thanks for writing; I am feeling better now - it only hurts a little bit, and I can walk on it now. I’m glad to know it will heal and eventually grow back!
