Narrow escape

Got Indy back from the Royal Dick Vet yesterday and he is in far better shape than I expected. They did an amazing job given that he wouldn't have hung on much longer. Now he's bouncing around like a kitten - albeit a mute one - and even Ash is happy again.
Right now we can only thank the vets at the Royal Dick, the SSPCA for ensuring all rehomed cats go home with pet insurance and Mr Hunter at the West End Veterinarian partnership. We're less impressed with the other vet we saw and have learned a lesson there and even less impressed with Felix, the local bully cat who started the problem.
