Still have 2 cats heavier than Robbie - Master Casper Ragdoll and Master Star NFC and some of my moggies are nearly at 7kgs but he is a big boy like Leo but he is rather scrummy ;D

 :evillaugh: the vet wasn't overly concerned by his weight  :shocked: when she first saw him, she said
" My...isn't he a huge Bruiser of a cat, Look at the size of his head "

7.9kg now Helen  :shocked:  :evillaugh:

Yikes! Maybe that's why they let you in despite the appointment mix up, they felt sorry for you after lugging him all that way  :evillaugh:

hmmmm vet also mentioned a slight build up of tartar, so I'll keep an eye on it  ;)
but I am guessing for a quick buck, dental will probably be sooner than later....
oh yes, cost for booster / worming drops, and I suppose you could say Quick examination = £48

Third time lucky eh Stuart, glad you made it in the end!  :evillaugh: Did the vet weigh him while he was there? Would be interested to know how much he weighs as he's a biiiiiig boy going from the recent pics of him.

Snap I was at the vet with Billie Jo for her second kitten injection and Master Mistral Border Collie for his Booster and Kennel cough but my vet is open on a Saturday :rofl:

I have a couple with canines chipped or have been broken its usually crunching on what they have been hunting for - they don't usually bother them as the tooth seals its self only if they mention dental would it be worth worrying about - We have had 4 dentals this year

Robbie got His Booster jab today

Robbie the stretch finally got his booster Jab today, it was supposed to be done in February  :shocked:
the last two days He had been booked in, but one way or another He escaped  :doh: made another appointment for today
and finally got him in the cat carrier, which was a painful experience for all concerned  :doh:  Got to the vet's, the door was locked  :-:
rang the number just to get an answer machine :Crazy: finally a receptionist opened the door, " can I help you?? " Yes I am booked in for
Robbie to get his booster.. " we don't make appointment's for Saturday's, it's only for emergency's! .................  :-: .....................
anyway , after explaining that he should have had them in Feb, and this was the third appointment, she said the vat won't be long
 :)
The injection went fine, and I got worming drops, then vet carried out a quick examination, during which she pointed out Robbie has
two broken teeth  :shocked: ? He certainly never had broken teeth last year?? one of the lower left side canine's has the tip off it, but the
top right Canine has only about a third of the tooth left??? ( it does look very short  :( ) Vet asked me if he eats dried biscuits ok??
He mainly eats the dried biscuits and shows no sign of pain

still, it is a bit concerning, how could he have got broken teeth??
has anyone else's furkid had the same thing??
