    kitten is good now, looking quite ready to pounce on the xmas tree ! 2pm was a different story, he was crying in pain and wouldn't let me hold him

    ended up ringing round vets that could see him, local pets at home vets wouldn't

    i could cry tbh but then again he is one of the family, lostinrates doesn't rain it pours x

    You just never know,do you?Pet insurance might be a good idea.

    Like you say,one person can ruin it for everyone else.

    haven't caught up yet sorry x

    anyway ours is OFF , had at £115 vets bill today, thought my kitten had broken/fractured his leg/paw (vet did 2) he is very lucky that its soft tissue and only needed anti inflammatory injection and oral ones for a week, just what we needed before xmas

    Poor thing. Our cat came in last week with a paw so swollen you could have clubbed somebody to death with it. I took him to the vet and he had two jabs and antibiotics for 5 days. Cost me just under £35. We do have pet insurance, but there is an excess, and on ours it's £70 so I can't claim it back.

    What sort of medicine did you get? We had antibiotics in capsules, which I broke open and mixed the powder in with his food. If it's a tablet I'm sure you could crush it and mix it in.

    dogstarheaven,

    I use neutrogena norwegan formula hand cream for all that split finger business, it goes in really well and isn't very greasy. Not cheap but it works. I know vaseline works well and is cheaper but hate the feel of it.
