oh bless her - the trauma of everything she has been through - poor thing. But yay for having her home

That's one of the things that I couldn't wrap my brain around in all of this... as if the cat hadn't been through enough trauma, they were going to add to it by rehoming her... there's so much wrong with how this was handled, but I'm glad it had a happy ending.

So glad she's home.
She'll have an adjustment period to get used to the lost limb, but in no time, she'll be basically back to her old self. Animals adapt to these things better than humans.

lastexitlondon · May 19

The vets have behaved appalling I wouldn't recommend them to anyone.
Whilst we were there they wouldn't let my daughter even see the cat and when I said I had the money they said oh we can go get her. Then a lady said has payment been made? Because I can't let you see her until full payment is made.
But also in the waiting room were 2 young girls saying goodbye to their per crying their eyes out .
Perspective

Micheyb21 · May 19

that is appalling behaviour from a vets all round - its blackmail at the end of the day - makes me so angry. Aww she is looking more settled in her little house and like Poncier said- she will adapt in no time> im sure it wont be long before you up at 5am thanks to a case of the cat zoomies haha.

Great news glad she’s with her family! Find another vet and give this vet terrible reviews

lastexitlondon · May 19

Will do. The only reason we ended up there is that her leg was hanging off and this vet is less than 1 mile away. No way ever setting foot in there and I will also leave some bad reviews given some time to word it correctly I'm quite an instinctive passionate guy, I tend to speak first thing after.

For real!!

lastexitlondon · May 19

I sat here crying this morning at 6am thinking how do I give all these people money back because we haven't got enough.
Then I cried even more when it suddenly became 100% .
I'm just floored. I cry a lot as it is. But man

Thank you speedy for getting this all rolling in a massive way

SPEEDY MCCREADY · May 19

So how much medication was Bella sent home with? When does she have to go back to have stitches removed? Is she going to get one of those silly things around her neck?

lastexitlondon · May 19

She is not on any meds anymore. She had intravenous antibiotics last week and some gabapentin . She will be seen Thursday to have stitches checked and thats it. The wound is clean and well.

SPEEDY MCCREADY · May 19

Glad to hear "no meds".

My cats always try to scratch my eyeballs out of my head when I have to give them meds. Hahaha

when did you get put over the top in donations?

Darwinstheory completed the total on the deadline. The crowdfunding page take £80 in costs which I paid and they don't send the money out for at least a week so I had a kind member here offer the use of her credit card until it came through but at that time in the vets the total bill was 2,320 I believe my mum said put it on her credit card save someone having to share their details.
So another thing the vets are shady with, I asked for the invoice to show you all and they will post me one out because the actual vet (owner) has to write it up . I'm sure they cooked up a number but anyway I Will post that here when it arrives for full clarity.
I haven't stopped the crowdfunding yet because last time I edited it it shut it down for a day and I can't risk the money slowing down it's arrival for my mum's card.
If any money comes after I will give it to Darwinstheory as he slammed 500 last min to save the whole thing.

Amazing. You know right before the lead in to faithful Ed spoke about the way music brings people together he went on a little while about it. And your experience that was shared here was a fine example of that. Shows that there is in fact good people in the world, willing to be kind to others and and take action behind that with empathy. to a relative stranger, to be honest. You may have met some of these folks at a show or been present at the same show but not really really know them you know? Being the recipient of unexpected kindness from others can be humbling, I've experienced that myself here recently for different reasons but nonetheless , for me overwhelming in a way . the emotional, mental sometimes to degree spiritual help give it freely from these folks here it's a little bit mind-blowing. But much needed given the state of the world and how much we are bombarded with negativity can be hard to see the good that does in fact exist anyway I'm very very happy for you and your family and I hope Bella adjust to her new limitations.

lastexitlondon · 6:02AM

Bless you all

lastexitlondon · 10:39AM

I'm fucking raging. As I left the vet yesterday I asked what if she became infected. They she is out of that time period and healed perfectly. She had antibiotics at the time. I said do you promise because I have no more money.
Guess what the wound bled and back we go. £20 antibiotics I said you are having a laugh surely.
Paid the 20 and I want to torch the place

lastexitlondon · 10:44AM

It's the principle. Don't tell me it's all past that stage while she has stitches I'm not fucking stupid. It's a wound. I told them this is possible they should have sent her home with antibiotics. Gggrrrrrrr
