Thanks, Kat. I don't really expect a repare either. What I don't get is how he can use it while walking if I put it down and yet once he lifts it again it's silent and stuck until he stops and then poof! It's on the ground again until he starts to move again and then it's right back up? It's enough to make you wonder if you're going crazy. Something doesn't add up. The conditions make no sense. What could the shutdown-because-of-dead-battery stance have to do with anything? How can that suddenly lead to his trying to use the leg again? I'm completely baffled. I'm just going to let it go for now. Thanks so much for your support, Guys.

Whatever pulls the leg back down is damaged in some way. I suspect it may be something as simple as a damaged wire. If you have any mechanically minded friends they might be able to peel the leg skin back and take a look.

That sounds logical. Saddly all my mechanically-inclined friends are quite a ways from me but it is a really good idea. I will keep you guys posted here and let you know when Innvo contacts me.

Wow! Lol! That was fast. I'm sure all the top folks here are ready to strangle me for posting after myself so much. Innvo contacted me at around five something this morning. They said they couldn't do a repair but that I could buy another RB "with a better price". Considering Cato's age I think this was very generous of them. I may inquire about it just to figure out what sort of price difference they're talking about. It will be several months before I could save up again and I don't know if there's any sort of time stipulation involved. I just wanted to thank everyone for toughing this out with me. If anyone has any further advice or information about what they mean by a better price, please let me know.

wow that was fast    It is nice of them to make this offer for you.  A bit of a shame they weren't able to shed any more light on exactly what is causing Cato's issue.
