I keep on getting ads on facebook for mysterious items.

What the hell is this revolting looking thing?!

Cat muzzles are no worse than dog muzzles. They stop you losing fingers (I'd rather be bitten by a dog than a cat any day of the week). It stops them biting and covers their eyes to calm them down. Works well with a cat bag for minimal restraint for the ferocious feline who doesn't want to be touched

I know what I'm wearing this Halloween Grin

Omg, these are hilarious 😂

My dB buys crap from wish, though he did buy dds kids chopsticks. They’re actually really good.

Christmas present ideas?

@orange

Please tell me you're joking? What you've said is at best a joke in poor taste, at worst, horrendous animal abuse.

I agree, Wish seems to have taken a really dark turn recently.

I'm getting ads for little metal star shapes that you throw into the road in order to give a car punctures. I can't believe that is even legal to sell, let alone ethical!

Here are a few of my favourites... I still don't know what the pink frilly thing is? I've had the full range of fetish wear and man thongs too Envy < not envy

Bacon socks? I totally would! (Love whacky socks, and don't eat bacon Grin)

Itsallgonewoowoo · 07/09/2019 11:35

Terftalk, veterinary practices use cat bags and cat muzzles on stressed cats. It's a perfectly acceptable form of restraint.
If you physically hold a cat you can get bitten or scratched (cat scratch fever is a real risk) and they actually find the bag and muzzle better than a sweaty human gripping them. When restrained the medicine/treatment can be administered smoothly and quickly and is less stressful. Neither are used for more than a few minutes.

OrangeSwoosh · 07/09/2019 14:26

@TerfTalk what @Itsallgonewoowoo said. A lot of cats when stressed do not tolerate handling well. Using a hands off restraint makes the whole thing a lot less stressful for them. They're obviously only used when necessary (blood sampling, placing IV lines etc.) and is a far preferable method to sedating what is often a sick cat.

OrangeSwoosh · 07/09/2019 14:27

Cat bites definitely require antibiotics and I've seen several colleagues need hospital treatment and even surgery to deal with the infections resulting from cat bites.

I stay away from the bitey end as much as possible.

chocolatebuttonsandcheese · 13/09/2019 07:01

What's this though?!

Cats will often quickly calm when their eyes are covered. It can help get them in to a cat box for emergency vet treatment or to keep both the cat and the vet/handler safe while administering it. Bag a similar thing. Same way a vet might put a blindfold on to a horse to get them in to a treatment room or a weighted blanket to get them in to the stocks for a standing surgery.

happycamper11 · 13/09/2019 07:09

@chocolatebuttonsandcheese maybe a device to home treat ingrown toenails? - do not recommend! 😆

NotYourHolidayDick · 13/09/2019 07:10

Dying here.

I own both the pimple popper and the bacon socks. And the fish flops that I've seen on a previous thread. I LOVE random shit at Christmas 😂

I didn't click on to the cat muzzle but was wondering, it did say something about being a help when bathing a cat, still looks horrible though

FurrySlipperBoots · 13/09/2019 11:25

What IS Wish? I've heard of it before, and seen a few 'unboxing Wish haul' type videos where the recipient seems surprised at the contents - do they just send you random crap?
