Well Zareth is out of the vets, minus one paw, and home with me for some (lots) of TLC. He is a fantastic puss with a bit of Big Cat about him. Not a lap cat but still loves a fuss.

Well it was infected, which is why he's had to wait a few days for his surgery - for the antibiotics to begin to work. I agree though, it is a miracle he is still with us.  I try not to think too much about what he's been through or how it happened because I can't reverse it for him.  :doh: :'(

I am seeing a lady on Thursday who owns a stables that we rehomed some semi-ferals to about a year ago. (You might remember the B&Ws from the housing estate near Tescos, Mark?) Her elderly house-pet puss passed away last week and she wants to talk to me about adopting a domestic now.  Zareth would love it there.... no nasty traffic, fields of grass for miles, horses and ponies to hang out with and a couple of semi-ferals to keep him company as well.  :sneaky:

Poor boy  :( - he must have been in agony  :'(

He is so lucky it didn't get infected or bleed to death.  :( - A fox maybe?

Poor Zareth

I hope that Angela (Pudding) won't mind but I just had to show you lot a picture of her new foster cat Zareth.  :blow kiss:

Zareth was reported to us last Thursday. He had been visiting a gentleman in Herne Bay for a couple of weeks. The man became concerned because Zareth appeared to be hanging his front leg and was very nervous and darted off as soon as he was approached. The man did have a feeling that Zareth knew he was in trouble and was appealing to the man for help... so he called us.  :)

Luckily we squeezed and shoved and made room as injured strays always take priority here. Angela delivered a trap to the gentleman and Zareth took very little effort to trap.  :briggin:

Sadly on close inspection Zareth has somehow lost the lower part of his leg. You can just see the stump resting above his back paw. The vet says this injury could have been like it for 6-8 weeks. We have no idea how it happened but it could have been that Zareth got trapped and either pulled or bit his own foot off to escape.  :'(

He was in a lot of pain when we first got him to the vet, but he has now been pumped with pain killers and seems a lot brighter and very friendly we are told. He will have a full amputation tomorrow and go to Angela for recovery. It's a good job he's not coming to me as he may not make it out the door again.... I just LURVE a soppy tabby.
