hurt keanus tail! broken??

[Donna]

Lets hope it all mends itself quickly!

I'm so glad he's feeling better.

Now - a little story. Once upon a time, in Siam, the wicked jealous suitor kidnapped the beautiful princess and held her captive. Nobody knew wher she was, except her faithful and intellegent Siamese. He leapt upto/downto the place she was being held. The princess took off her angagement ring, put it on the cats tail and *snick* (ouch!) broke the tail so that it bent over and the ring would stay put. The cat went to the fiance, who recognised the ring and followed the cat back to rescue his fiancee, the princess.
So that is why some Siamese have a kink in the last half-dozen joints of their tail...........

......... or that is what the breeder of my late lamented Min told me. (Min, like many Siamese, had a kinked tail). She also charged me £60 instead of £90

So, if Keanu ends up with a kink you can tell the story but set it in Bengal instead!

Oh DM, I'd forgotten that story! Heard it when I had my late lamented Su-ling, who didn't have a kink, nor crossed eyes....took the breeders a long time to weed those defects out...

So glad things went well at the vets. Lets hope Keanu's tail heals quickly.

Jenny - what's the verdict on Keanu's tail? Has it mended seamlessly?

[jenny]

hi dm, still giving him his antibiotics/anti inflammatorys.

he still has a small 'bump' in his tail, but other than that it doesnt seem to hurt him anymore and hes carrying it normally.
i dont think the bump will ever go away, unless its just bad swelling!

im so glad hes ok tho
