Boyfie has been badly hurt
Oh my gosh, Tweed I had to write to you!! I am so sorry and I am glad he appears bright after surgery. I'm thinking of you and sending Purrs.

wrote in message ... I just saw this on FB how dreadful, purrs on their way Lesley Unless I am out of my mind with worry ( which I am) and forgotten, I haven't posted this on Facebook. My first alliance is to rpca Usenet. Thank for your purrs, he needs them desperately. My first thought was it was a fox or the JRT next door but when he was under anaesthetic he was examined all over, no bruises, no bite marks, his fur was clean i.e he hadn't been bowled over by a dog or fox. The vet says it's the most bizarre injury he's ever seen as there's no explanation for it and we might never know how he got it. Slave of the Fabulous Furballs |

... Oh my gosh, Tweed I had to write to you!! I am so sorry and I am glad he appears bright after surgery. I'm thinking of you and sending Purrs. He isn't bright as far as I can see when I visited him this pm. He's the least bright cat I've ever seen, but maybe "bright and alert" is a medical term for wakes up and isn't dead yet. I visited him, managed to get him to eat for me and no way is he coming home yet. I will visit him tomorrow to encourage his eating again, but I prefer to leave him there for pain relief and oral tabs.

We will send all our purrs for the vets' skill and his complete recovery. He has his temperature taken every few hours and they love him because "he is so sweet about it" I told them he wouldn't use a litter box and he hasn't. The nurse says she'll try soil. good luck with that nursie I'd like to bring him home but he needs the meds. They say they can teach me to do it but what thay don't realise is how different Boyfie is at home versue being a flatcat at the vet. Tweed |

I find this so upsetting, I can't imagine how you feel. :-( -- I haven't had an accident like this *ever* I've searched the garden and can't see how it could have happened but I don't know where he goes. I did of course want to blame a fox or the JRTnext door but no. Boyfie was examined he has no bruises,no bite marks. The vet says he hasn't seen an injury like this befofe. Boyfie is still at the vets and will remain there until Monday |
