Poor old Albert

I feel awful. Why you ask?

Well I came home yesterday to find Albert, one of my cats, had a large lump sticking out of his gum. Thinking that he had something stuck in his teeth (which has happened before) I examined further to find that one of his canine teeth is at right angles to where it is supposed to bet.

Not that he minded, quite happy to pur away, sleep on the bed and have a good munch on crunchy catfood.

End result is that I have just taken him to the vet where he has an overnight stay to get it removed in the morning. I have left him looking pathetic in a cage, meowing away, giving me that why are you doing this to me look and I just feel so guilty.

I’m pathetic. :frowning:

One good thing is that the vet said he probally got it in a cat fight (I have a good idea who the other cat could be the un-neuterd terror of the nieghbourhood and stealer of cat food) and that the other cat is probally feeling it now.

Poor Albert. I hope he feels better soon. Punkin sends his sympathies, as he’s just had a patch of fur ripped off his neck by someone…(I wish I could keep him inside, but I can’t…)

Are you sure your cat wasn’t held captive by a satanic cult of neo-Lovecraftian, ex-nun, pre-menopausal witches in diaphanous gowns and Stevie Nicks accessories who trained him as a succubus in order to prey on beautiful young men in their sleep while they lurk menancingly outside their bedroom windows, desperate fingers searching for a way in? No? Well, why not? Show some self-respect.

Poor old Albert!!

I hope he gets better soon - and I love his name!
