Quote from: "Odinson"A week ago I found my injured cat on the porch..



At first glance I thought someone had put some red tape on the base of his tail but it turned out it was the cats flesh showing.





The tail had been yanked out of its socket and was just hanging there..

The vet took the tail off completely and stitched the wound..





Now he cant pee or take a crap properly because those functions are paralyzed.







Anybody got any experience with this kind of thing?

Quote from: "Chuck Bronson"I KNOW I will get shit for the advice I may give you here, but your cats life is now your responsibility.  YOU must decide what the long-term prognosis for successful recovery is.



If it doesn't look good, and the cat is not happy...  You know what needs to be done in the most humane way possible.  It is a hard thing to do, and as such why many people take their pets to the vet to get put down, but that is your call.



You are the only one that can assess the situation well enough to decide how to handle this unfortunate situation.

I don't think so Mel..



My beloved dog is nearing the end of her life..



She's very old,completely deaf, limps when she walks and has trouble making it to the door, so we can let her out to do her business..



We are thinking about having her put to sleep.

Quote from: "Odinson"I´m thinking I aint giving him much of a chance at recovering if I euthanize him after just one week.

Sorry to hear that fashie..



Its too bad that they are so short-lived compared to us.





They never die merely of old age.. Its always suffering at the end.





My cat aint that old technically and he is still energetic like a young cat.

You talk to the Vet...  If he (or she) doesn't think the prognosis it very good, do what you have to do right then and there...



Don't extend suffering for weeks or even months like some people do, expecting some miracle.  Yeah, the odd miracle happens, but don't bet on it!

The vet is a she and she is slightly inexperienced and inappropriate young girl..





I dont trust her expertise due to the indecisive fumbling and the fact that she asked whether she can take picture of the injury before even starting to treat it..





That and the inappropriate jokes..





There is a time and place for the Key-fob jokes..

Than find a veterinarian you do trust..



Ask someone to recommend one.

I saw this on VF. Our cat is strictly an indoor cat, so we don't have to worry about her getting hurt.



I was never a pet person until my parents bought me a rabbit when I was single. I actually cried when he died. Now, I totally love my cat and we want to get a dog soon. Fur babies are awesome.

Funny thing is that some random stranger warned me not to let my cat outside like 2-3 weeks ago..



Its a normal thing in the country-side to let these regular cats go outside..







You get attached to them and they are like family members.. Fur babies is the correct term..



I think I might cry a little if I have to put him down.

He has been an indoor/outdoor cat since he was a kitten.

Quote from: "Chuck Bronson"I'll be honest, Odie...  You should probably prepare to make your peace with your cat now, and you KNOW it is probably time now to do what you don't really want to do.

What do you think happened to him?

He got stuck to something..



Got attacked by a fox or something like that.





Or some sicko did it..





It kinda looked like someone had took a knife to the tail, cut the skin clean to the bone and then tried to pull the tail off..





I didnt really take a close look.



The tail was otherwise intact though.

It  does seem like it was a deliberate act by some sick individual.

Some of these people hate cats for no reason.



Cats are pretty elusive and dont bother anybody.





My cat doesnt even get angry.. Never seen an angry reaction..

No hissing or biting.





Thats not a good thing since he can be approached by a stranger.

Quote from: "realgrimm"Good show Odie.. real humans show compassion for the fur babies.. My dog just past in August and I doped her up since she was in pain.. happened on the holidays and I'm not properly equipped to get her to a vet(no car,taxis wouldn't take her,no vets close by,holidays so vets were closed) it comes down to the pets quality of living and whether its spirit is muted due to malady for me it took 3 days had some kinda internal growth that blocked her airways and was to painful to lay down...sad times..

I agree man, just saying what my friend recently told me.



I had to put down my oldest cat 6 years ago, she was 16 years old, blood in stools, couldnt control it, was in pain, so I put her down, was so sad. Now, the oldest cat I have is 15 years old, I think she is going. Think she started going blind last week. Seems real disoriented and running into things, losing weight.

yeah it sucks when they deteriorate at the end its so rapid..I live and breath my pets so am quite observant when ailments are present.. It's all again, Quality Of Life  thats all we can do keep em safe and happy while they are with us ..and FFS when its time they part this mortal coil you are there and the last thing they see..I red on reddit what vets hate the most and they said at the end when the pets owner takes them in to be put down then leave the room during the process ,makes the animal panic and look round the room for someone safe...now I'm getting choked..



animals do so much for us devote their very existence it's really the least we can do

I'm  waiting to see what the vet Odi takes his kitty to recommends.

The vet said that I shouldnt think about euthanizing my cat..





Different vet this time..





She gave my cat some anesthetic and installed a rubber duct where the tail used to be.. So that the mucus/reddish liquid runs out and reduces the swollenning.





She could not empty my cats bladder but after anesthetic, she did it.. So that indicates my cat is gaining back control over that function.





Might be just refusing to pee due to that satellite dish thing around his head.







She was optimistic and said to give it time.. 1 week just aint enough to recover from anything..

real sad is how friendly wild animals are becoming since lots of humans do respect animals lives and make them tame which is just a recipe for disaster either some sick fuck takes advantage and inflicts pain or the wild animals try to incorporate themselves with humans but still have that opportunistic survival mode and end up gaining numbers leading to food raids and even baby snatching
