Have you already been to a vet's with him?

@Oberon

He's become quite a sneaky little devil. Took him outside for a bit of exercise, and he made an escape attempt. Managed to catch him thankfully.

I don't know if I've ever mentioned it on the forum before, but I've also had a dog for nearly 7 years now. Meet Wallie (sorry for the red-eye; makes him look like a demon dog):

Yeah, I had him checked out. His back leg is injured and possibly broken. The vet, whom I didn't care for, never elaborated on his injuries. His tail will heal, but it will be bent partially. Fortunately, I've still got a good enough memory to recall in the military how to properly dress a wound with bandages. I'll need to clean them, though, with either alcohol or liquid surgical soap (I'll probably go for the soap since it's less painful).

I can recommend Hibi-scrub, that's what we use on wounds. And don't use standard human disinfectant, it's poisonous to animals.

Love Wallie, he's beautiful, we've got a little Lhasa/Tibetan terrier called Sue, and a Collie/Lab called Max, as well as five cats :lol: Would never, ever be without an animal companion, I've met more nice animals in this world than I have humans, that I can say :up:

Do they sell that scrub at Wal-Mart?

It's possible, being in the UK I'm not so sure, either that or the local chemist/drug store might have something. Failing both of them, the vet might be able to tell you where you can get some or an equivalent.

I'll look into that. Thanks for the heads-up.:up:

I think he realises what a lucky little lad he is, that's the beauty with a Siamese, they've got so much personality in them. I've heard them referred to as 'little dogs' sometimes, such is their closeness to people.
In the future, SH, you might want to get a cat-harness, some Siameses like going out for walks :)

I truly feel that they do. Dogs and Cats in "unfortunate circumstances" have to feel gratitude when they are moved into a safe and loving house. I know my two rescue animals do.

Our 17 year old cat still has nightmares and when they happen she cries and snuggles with me until she calm's down.

He's starting to get a little meat on his bones, not much, but he's gradually getting some.

This is Semtex, who was a few months old and a bag of bones when we found him. Since been rehomed.

And this is Rasputin, destroyer of socks :p. He likes to sleep on the keyboard while I'm gaming.

Some nice cats you have, even though I am allergic to them I still love them :up: Good thing that there are people who care about animals in this world. What could we do without them?

Oberon 07-30-08 04:01 PM

Bump, so this doesn't fall off the front page so SH can give us regular updates on Zero :up:

Be sure to check his fur for any divine stuff. ;)

But anyway, a nice looking cat. More of a dog-person myself but I have lived with a cat. Nice animals with fun personalities. Good of you to take care of him.
