Pebbles has been in the wars !

[Piggymon]

Poor ickle kitty cat, came in from the garden and her paw was seeping blood... lots of it !

So we got her into the cat carrier ( after about 20 minutes of fighting with her - she normally goes straight in ) and straight to the vets.

The vet examined her and she had a massive gash on the top of her paw between the claws the equivilant of inbetween our fingers.

They admited her to have it stitched up, she had to have general anesthetic.

We picked her up 6 hours later, she has a mahoosive bandage and feeling very sorry for herself :( ( I do like the way they picked a bandage to match her fur though ;D )

She needs to go back on Tuesday for a checkup and then 10 days later to get the stitches removed.

We have to keep her indoors until it's all healed - at least we'll get a break from trying to resuce mice and frogs she brings in :p

Thank fudge for pet insurance is all I can say :shocked:

[Piggymon]

Well that lasted a long time, the little sod has pulled the bandage off ;D

*stifles laugher* I love the camo bandage, that's so COOL! :D

Awwwww, poor little Pebs cat. Has she been fighting?? Hope she gets better soon and doesn't drive you too mad being locked up indoors. I feel your pain on the mouse front though, we've had several pressies brought in that have had to be rescued and released again. Fortunately no frogs so far. They're worse than mice because they squeal!!

LOL time for a collar :evil:

They're very good with the collars on because they can't bloody see anything. We thought Flo was a placid little angel when we got her... until the collar came off. Unfortunately it was too late to send her back by then :( :p

[Piggymon]

I don't think she's been fighting, I think she caught it on a nail or something.

I phoned the vet again and as long as she isn't bothering her stitches too much it should be ok - will have to keep an eye on it.

She's not happy about being grounded ;D

[Desmo]

The amount of blood this morning was incredible. There were laps of paws going around the table and in the kitchen. The patio was covered in paw prints and when I picked her up it was dripping. She's alright though, brought her up tough :D

[Lopez]

massive gash

Arf arf :D

[Roberta]

Oh poor little mite!

[Ben M]

That camo bandage is ace!

[Psymonkee]

Awesome camo bandage! :D

GWS :>

[Nutcase]

Aw poor puddy cat :( Our cat Shirley (about 20 years ago!) came home once with something similar, but the whole skin from the paw was haning off. IIRC Shirley pulled the bandages off repeatedly too!

[leowyatt]

just be thankfully it is a bandage and not a cast ;)

[Mark]

Poor moggy! Get well soon Pebbles cat.

[Matblack]

Aitch thinks she may have a genetic predisposition to being a glass magnet like her daddy.

Shirley is an WAESOM E name for a cat :cool:

[Mark]

Has someone been enjoying themselves tonight, perhaps. ;D ;D

[Fayshun]

I'm off cats at the moment, I tried to kick Dexter out the kitchen yesterday and the little sod took exception to being picked up. I have 12 puncture wounds on my wrists and hands. :(

[Lomster]

Faysh I did tell you not to call him Dexter.

I love her bandage :D but poor pebbles cat hope she is better soon :)

;D

She's eaten and been walking around like normal - she seems to be fine in herself :)

Just need to keep an eye on the stitches now.

[Blackstar]

Poor Pebbles cat! Hope she is better soon.

[Kell_ee001]

[Haly]

[Von Smallhausen]

How good is that bandage ...... :D

We can rebildz her.

[Kitten]

awww poor kitty. As leo said, be glad it's not a cast. My mum got a black eye from her cat smacking her in the face to wake her up (he used to pat her face in the morning) when he had a plaster cast on. By the time it came off (he'd broken his leg badly), he was down to a 10 minute record for taking the damn thing off. Funny skinny leg when it came off though ;D

Hope pebblescat is better very soon!! x Kitties send their hugs.

[Pebs]

I thought 'How does Piggy KNOW these things!?' lol!

Poor kitty, hope she's on the mend soonest!

[Nutcase]

[Slinwagh]
