    Zara - great. The bump I worried about turned out to be her hip bone LOL

    George - no need for surgery but poor cat has arthritis and was told to give him glucosamine.

    Zara, no more sling. On lead for anothher 6 weeks but in 2-3 weeks can go out on flexi. No need for hydrotherapy as he muscles are fine.

    :D


    Roll on another 6 weeks wohooooo biggrin.gif

    Poor George, have you thought about trying a magnetic collar? Might be worth a try x

    Did not think about a magnetic collar at all TBH - saying that, Zara had one and it seemed to have helped for at the time.

    Will have a look at those, thanks BUT - all my cats are absolute experts at losing collars so gave up ages ago...

    BTW - does anyone know if a dopg magnetic collar that is 1 year old, was worn allk the time, on walks nd while swimming (so got wet often) will still work?

    Just wondered about giving ara's one to my friend.....
