Some years ago, the RSPCA siezed 6 cats from a bonkers women who only used them as breeding machines.
We took Peanut, her twin brother, and three Bengals that we re-homed.
Peanut was one of the worst cases of neglect I have ever seen over the years. Both her and her twin brother had cat flu and I failed to save her brother very sadly dispite sitting up all night with him for days.
Peanuts Persian fur was so matted, it resembled dreadlocks and was so stiff she could not turn her head. Due to fluid on her lungs I could not have her anthestised to remove It. I spent days slowley chipping away with tiny scissors to free her neck. They were all riddled with fleas, worms and open sores. Peanuts teeth were all completely rotton and causing her pain.
Once I had got the fluid off her lungs, which took 4 weeks of anti-biotics, she was anthestised by the vet and completely shaved. She went back in later to have all her teeth removed except one.
Underneath all that matted fur, she was skin and bone. Due to the severity of starvation, she never fully recovered. Since then, she has always remained weak and prone to any Infection going round. We have had her around 6 years now and in that time she has also gone senile and likes staring at walls.
She recently contracted an Infection in one of her eyes and to cut a long story short, we did all we could to combat It but it got the better of her. To save the Infection spreading to other parts, she lost her eye this morning.

For many years, his home is where Illegal species go when they are discovered and siezed by customs at airports.
This is what was siezed very recently. Who ever tried smuggling this in to Britian needs their head examined. By co-incidence there was a doco about them on tv last night.
They are one of only two Lizards who's bite will kill a human.

Sonoran Lizards

They must be mad bringing this into the country. ]]> The Pets In Our Lives oscar http://www.forumgarden.com/forums/pets-our-lives/48655-omg-look-what-my-nephew-has-got-now.html
