    RAzWaz,

    Glad to hear they're starting to get on now. They were probably just sizing each other up and decided who was going to be topcat.

    Is Dylan's leg swollen at all? One of my cat's got attacked by a tomcat and he started limping. We noticed a day later his leg was swollen and it was because the wound was actually infected. We couldn't see a wound though when we looked, it was just a tiny puncture wound the vet found.

    Hope Dylan is ok when he goes to the vets tomorrow x

    It's not swollen and there is nothing visible there. He's letting me have a look, not snatching it away. It sort of looks like a sprain.

    The vet is for their vaccinations, so I'll get him to look while we are there, hoping it's nothing but I don't want to risk leaving my babies in pain.

    Seems he's feeling better, put down my dinner for a second to change the channel and he shot over, robbed a whole sausage and ran under the sofa with it.

    All we can here is growls every time Morti goes near him, and the sounds of a very happy kitten chomping away.

    Comfort eating eh? ;)

    Glad his leg isn't looking swollen.

    Hope the trip to the vets goes well. My youngest is off to the vets tomorrow for his first vaccination.

    I've got two kittens glaring at me and sulking now that we are back from the vets. Vaccinations for both of them cost £100 :eek:

    They were running an offer for £99 you get a yearly booster shot and health check for life, offered to buy it for each kitten if they gave me a discount (my inner mse came out) and in the end paid £230 for everything.

    Morti has had both shots now, Dylan gets his second in 3 weeks and also has some worming treatment as he's a bit small for his age.

    I'm slowly winning them back over with the new clockwork mouse toy I bought them (saved it as a treat for when they got back).

    RazWaz, my vet used to do a vaccination for life programme for £70 for cats but they've discontinued it now :(

    How is 230 less than 2x99?

    have you got them both insured?

    Getting ready, when my vet ran the programme I had to pay for that year's jab + vacs for life package which really started the next year when they were due for jabs.

    I imagine RazWaz was expected to pay £100 for these jabs + 2x£99 for the vacs offer.
