He's now eating dry treats and walked over to me purring, and then he landed a bunt. Great signs, just have to hope for no infections. Cats do have the most incredible powers of recovery.

mjmooney Posted November 28, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted November 28, 2017 The Bach thing is interesting. Harry (the cat with the smashed leg) used to love listening to Bach. He was either indifferent to, or positively avoided, any other music - but stick the Brandenburg Concertos on, and he was down there between the speakers, purring away with a beatific expression on his face. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paddywhack Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 You wouldn't think a cat would like Bach, it being the sound a dog makes. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maqroll Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 Oscar update: He's back to his original state- lethargic and not eating. I'm gonna take him to my vet in an hour, hopefully they can sort him out. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post maqroll Posted November 28, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted November 28, 2017 Alrighty then, he vet says his stitches look good, his temp is normal, and she said that he probably was lethargic because he was dehydrated and needed more pain med. She expects him to make full recovery. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob182 Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 Good cat story: The other night I was lying in bed and heard the cats jump up on the kitchen work surface (I have good hearing). I’m guessing it was about 1am, and I was racking my brains wondering what they were trying to eat. No food had been left out, everything had been cleaned up from dinner. The place was spotless. I came downstairs the next day and found an opened bag of pork scratchings on the floor with a few wayward pieces around the place Bad cat story: Tonight, the more fiendish of my two cats (Edwin, the fat one), brought in a mouse. This isn’t anything out of the ordinary, but tonight instead of chucking it around or growling at me when I tried to get it off him, he just left it on the floor for me to inspect. I poked the mouse with a bit of stick that had also been dragged in, and the poor thing was still alive. I don’t know why it bothered me more than normal, I’m used to dead, alive and inbetween things being brought in, but this mouse just kind of let out a sigh when I poked him, I felt it. Anyway, instead of bashing him with a brick like the rest, I put him in a shoebox on top of a radiator to live out his final minutes in the warm. They like warmth, I’m guessing? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rugeley Villa Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 Cat hunting at the moment. I'm letting my other half have one for her birthday present. Would love to rescue one, but in the same breath would love a kitten. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
