Plum Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 This is Rabbit also known as Twiglet. I was trimming her nails and found on her dew claw what looked like a double nail. I don't know if it a deformed nail or one that has grown round twice Has anyone heard of this before. When they start catching their claws in the carpet it reminds me to trim them. I can't believe I have missed it. I feel really bad, she won't let me look at it properly so its a trip to the vet. I've cleaned it and put vet powder on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chick wiggle Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 I thought she just looked a bit confused! Probably a bit of species confusion going on. A cat called Rabbit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seagazer Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 Oh she's gorgeous, I don't see a problem with a cat called Rabbit. I had a budgie called Pigeon I hope her paw gets better soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plum Posted January 4, 2010 Author Share Posted January 4, 2010 I have a chicken called Pigeon Ann Been to vet and it was overgrown and had gone round a couple of times. She's had it trimmed and has quite a cavity and the smell anyway with some antibiotics the vet says it will heal really quickly. Poor Rabbit am going to have to give her my left over roast beef. Laurie - marmite flavoured cat??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plum Posted January 4, 2010 Author Share Posted January 4, 2010 Sorry I'm feeling thick, she is Twiglet because that is what she brings in stuck to her coat along with slugs. Will try her on some marmite She's renamed Lamb now but her real name is Myrtle. It's confusing when we go to the cattery, I can't remember which name I told them Look what my son did to her picture When really she is a softie and lays eggs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valkyrie Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 Lovely cat (then I have a chicken now called Kitty ) Poor little thing being turned into a monster. Actually the second pic looks like a gremlin. I'd like to do an Erin with Rabbit/Twiglet - boof boof! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seagazer Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 Lovely photo - bit scarey though! When Sophie was a kitten she used to come in with slugs pierced on her teeth and all the slug juice around her mouth it used to be my job to try to get them off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valkyrie Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 Paddy our old tortie used to collect live elephant hawkmoths and deposit them in the middle of the floor. They looked like poo with eyes, but slugs. Sophie sounds as though she did a better job than the chickens (who turn their noses up at the slime).
