If I thought one of mine was going to be kept in a shed, I would have brought them home with me where they are safe & warm and I could keep an eye on them. I always quiz vets as the one next door to me leaves animals on their own all night and even turns the light off  >:( (I know as there are glass bricks in their wall in our garden)

I believe I am not interested to know whether Vivisection produces results that are profitable to the human race or doesn't. To know that the results are profitable to the race would not remove my hostility to it.  Mark Twain

Well I would be frothing at the mouth if it were one of mine!  >:(

I would say the vet nurse was doing the cat a favour if she had'nt put him in the shed!  :Crazy: Why take him home to put him in a shed? He would of been better off staying at the vets!  :-:

My thoughts exactly, surely if he was ill enough to be kept in over the weekend he would need tlc in a warm environment  :shocked:

Poor Lionel.

I pray for a happy ending to this story.

I bet the nurse feels awful.

Cheltenham, not Gloucester  ;)

Honeybourne are good vets, I've not heard a bad thing about them, it is very worrying that he was put in a shed and not a nice cozy room in the house. I really hope they find him soon.

A vet practice in Gloucester has lost a cat in its care - apparently a vet nurse took him home for the weekend  The nurse put him in her garden shed in his carrier - but left the carrier open - and he managed to get out of the shed! (practice owner nor the owner knew about this apparently - its just been on Radio 2 about it)
