Default Can I have cuddles for my cat please

My Mr Tibbs is in the vets and it's bad.
The vet has no idea whats bitten him, it's a single puncture wound so she thinks it could be a spider, I didn't realise there were venomous spiders here? It's right at the base of his tail next to his backside.
Apparently it's looking pretty grim and I don't know what I'd do if anything happend to him, or any of my animals for that matter.

I completely understand how close one can become to pets.

I had a dog called "Dumdum". He died about ten years ago now.

I paid an extra £150 to have him cremated alone so that I knew that all the ashes were his. They are in a coffin shaped wooden box above my bed.
He was a warrior dog. Half German Shepherd, Half Rotweiler. He was top-dog on every travellers site I ever lived on. A bloke set his three alsations on Dumdum in the local park and he saw all three of them off.

I'm not going to get any more pets until I'm a lot older and better at accepting loss.

As for Mr tibbs, I think that there are some venomous spiders on the continent. Let's be thankfull that the spider did not kill him. He will be very wary of them henceforth and aviod them like the plaig.

Thankyou for the hugs he's home now and looking very sorry for himself, stumbling around from the ketamine.

Well, the vet ruled out lizards, rats or cats. He's all truss up like a chicken, poor sod I just have to spend the night keeping an eye in him, he's trying to pull the head cone off, and walking into walls.

Aww
My guinea pig had an eye infection and we were told either £20 to have him put down or £300 for an operation to save him. I stood there sobbing in the vets, begging Dad to pay for the operation (Which he thankfully did). So I know how upsetting it is when a loved pet's ill. I hope he's ok.

Hi Kate, hope Mr.Tibbs will be o.k. If that's him in your avatar he is beautiful, reminds me of my mum's cat and the one we had in our early marriage.
