As for 3 legs.. cats commonly adapt to life with three legs..again vet advice..and not my prognosis

All animals can and will adapt to three legs im not disputing this,but i was told that he may of needed it amputated and at 10wks old weighing 15kilos no great bother but his adult weight of 35kilos plus might of interefered with his quality of life.and one i wasnt willing to risk.
Im presuming here the first vet didnt do a complete and thorough xray of the cat to verify the full nature of its injuries? isnt that negligence or was you refered to a animal hospital similar to Rutland house where they specialise in specific injuries.I hope now after all this you have changed your vet cos i know i wouldnt be wanting to trust them.
I do believe that the RSPCA will help towards vet fees if owner is struggling another route i would of gone down rather than the newspaper

dear polly,
the initial vets approach concerned my frend that there was an underlying econmical issue for them. The fees started at 500 and within a 5 days had reached around 2000. the vets were changed and a the professionalism and integrity of the nurses and vets at the second establishment were above par. Whilst at the vets, my friend saw many animals in pain..some abuseed, some without owners with horrifuic injuries..hence the aim to raise money for the operation, and the rest of the money raised to be donated to the rspca and other reputable animal charities. Taking gracefully is one aspect..but its better when you can also give something back.

No, you say you've come to defend your so called friend...defend from what, we are sadly still in the dark.
Wish her all the best when it comes to raising money from the general public, her aim being reported in the local press, so that she can pay for the vet's bill.
You've done a great job rising public awareness for her cause, and I'm sure that people will now be very willing to dig deep into their pockets to help her.
Jolly well done.

It is far better to give than recieve and im only to sure that the RSPCA would be so pleased with any donation little or small,lets see they have 147 animal centres about 10 animal hospitals so any donation they recieve they will use to best of their will.They have a clinic in manchester where they see umpteen animals a day whose owners are either on benefits or simply just cannot pay for their pets treatment all you do is give a donation which i think stands at anything over £35.00,People cannot and should not rely on a charity to put their pet back to good health.i hope if your friend has obtained another cat that there is some kind of insurance in place not only for its health but in case it causes a acciden as public liability claims are not cheap,better to be safe than sorry

Yes but the work of the cat goes on.
Caught three mice in the trap today and bagged two with the air rifle.
Ah life without cats. Can go on.
PS I'm Allergic to them but would never hurt one

Re: Baxenden girl needs £1,500 to save attacked cat
i feel for the lassie who has to choose to either get the money or to put it down but my oppion is if the animal is suffering then put it down i kno it will be hard coz with pets they become a member of the family but its the case of being crule to be kind situation
