Needless to say, hard lesson learned. We r still unsure how the crankbait was left out, but very grateful to HL Animal Hospital. I have had to use them twice in the last 6 months, my baby Bella went into liver failure in January, n they fixed her right up. N after 9 days in the hospital, my bill was only 800.00...someone is there 24 hours a day, so if u r close by, n ever have a pet emergency, I highly recommend them.
Richochet will have to wear an E collar for 10 days til the staples are removed...something she is not real happy about...

But I am grateful it was not much, much worse. New rule....no fishing paraphernalia allowed in either home. Luckily, ATM is closing on his cabin May 21st...it has a shop where everything can be stored. So for those with animal family members, a friendly reminder....make sure NOTHING is left out!!!!

Did your cat SWALLOW the crankbait?

Glad your kitty cats ok, I'm bad about leaving stuff lying around myself. I'm definately pay more attention to what I leave laying around.

No...I think she used it like a toy, n got it hooked into her leg n belly, n then ripped it out of her belly, n got it re hooked back in her belly. It was stuck in her when I found her, and had a 1 1/2 inch open wound next to it.

Dang Barbie that sounds nasty! Glad everything is going to be alright! Granted I don't like a cat inside the house but I sure wouldn't want anything to happen to the wifes cat! Tigger is a pain in the butt! He thinks he is a dog and he plays fetch!



And besides Tigger gives my little girl Sugar someone to play with! Aint nothing better than to watch a 3.6 pound Yorkie chase a 15 pound cat around the house!Rofl
