update: so quite unexpectedly, we had to take our fur baby khan to the vet, and that put a snag in my next fair expenses. which is in just a couple of weeks. I will be posting up a sale in the next day or so with a number of goodies. possibly even some pre-order options.
TroubledBlues: thank you! so far, it's just looking like it's a strain/sprain from arthritis and the fact that he was aggressively chasing a bug around last night.
komikbookgeek: sorry I missed this response but they think it is just a sprain/strain from arthritis and chasing a buggy around aggressively last night.
TroubledBlues: ty bestie and I hope for the same! they are giving him some stuff now to help with the pain and swelling and sending us home with things.
shesays_: he's been resting most of the day! moving around is a new adventure for him with his injury so he does growl at himself once in a while, but he's resting.
