Mum's had to have four of her tribe put down in the past month, three due to calicivirus & one with pneumonia.
Today she called me as another two were ill & needed to be taken to the vets.
Needless to say, they were two of the most feral of the tribe, which resulted in a trip to A&E for me, as I didn't have time to borrow my brother's suede welding gauntlets (buy some if you have a recalcitrant cat).
Little bastard's teeth went all the way in to the cartilage:

Four hours in A& E later...

I have to go & see the consultant on Monday to decide if they need to dig in & do a deep clean.
If so, my trip to the US on April 2nd is toast...
