Good to hear Tidds is o.k. I think you will be a bit battered and bruised as well so perhaps you should curl up with her and give yourself a little tlc, take things easy for a couple of days.

I,m so glad Tidds is ok some cats have no manners id & i,m sure that when Tidds is recovered he,ll teach those town cats to remember them! they are supposed to welcome him with a fish head at least, you must be shattered though so please put up feet & cuddle Tidds his purrs will help your nerves which must be streched to breaking point after seeing him hurt. i hope you both recover your sunny nature soon,

Get well soon Puss. x

Hope she recovers soon. Do you think the bird attacked her? I once saw a a cat being dive bombed by four magpies, it was horrible but I managed to scare them away. Mine isn't speaking to me at the moment after a very difficult time yesterday trying to force her to take antibiotics for an ear infection. Eventually crushed them in water and shot it into her mouth with a syringe (one tablet already wasted in her food which she never touched for 24 hours). So, after being starved, manhandled by two people and then choking on fluid, she won't come near me today. Only 5 more days to go! Not sure what to do, she's got to have them one way or another. You'd think they'd make the stuff in a fluid that taste nice, would make life so much simpler for us all. She has an oral flea control she has in her food, no problem. Happy days! Any ideas? Libby

Update: Half a tin of tuna's done the trick, she either can't taste the antibiotic or doesn't care? Next problem will be to get her to eat cat food again!

Hi, I'm not at all happy with the vet. Three months ago Lily's ear was smelly so took her (she's 13 and first time she's ever needed to go apart from neutering). Cost nearly £70 for consultation and various meds. Never got any better. Took her back on Saturday and a different vet was apparently very puzzled as it's quite obvious she has a polyp and an infection - she was never given antibiotics first time so not surprising it didn't get better. Now I'm worried as I've noticed the label on the bottle says capsules yet these are tablets that have no writing on them, they just look like paracetemol to me. Looked on the internet and can't find any 75mg Antirobe in tablet form, only capsules? Anyway, cost another £40. Would you complain about the first visit? Am going to call tomorrow about the tablets anyway. Libby

All the best to Idds - moving is a big change for a puss cat - out of their territory.
