Cat, free to good (or bad) home.

[Pebblespony]

Anyone want a free cat? Mine just ate the string off a chicken. How he managed to get it out of the bin is a mystery, it has a lock to keep the toddler out. He's a bit on the chubby (obese) side and had experienced a vet-mandated reduction in his food rations which he is not happy about. He's very vocal in his displeasure and has turned into a sneaky food thief. So I've threathened to rehome him to a house with big dogs. No good offer rejected!

Ah bless his lil chubby face... do you have a pic so we can see what we might be taking on?

I don't have big dogs but I have two kittens who are useless and won't let me cuddle them. If he's cuddly I'll give him anything he wants!

Mine ate the string off the beef joint on Tues! So far no I'll effects !
It must be national string eating awareness week for cats!

Yes we need a pic

Here is is, in typically energetic mode.

This is him in formal-wear.

Aww. He looks like a monster cat. Ok, you’ve twisted my arm, I’ll have him.

Love the formal wear.

Great! I'll pop him in the post. I'm sure he'll be fine.

We are vegetarians so no chicken string here.

He's bringing his own.

YABU OP, he's skin and bones!

Sadly he can't come here, he'd gang up with PuffinCat and teach her bad manners probably no worse than she currently is tbf

Keep an eye on him, in case it cheesewires him.

He's going to the vet tomorrow anyway. He has a bit of nerve damage which means one of his eyes won't close properly but it seems to be slowly getting better. I'll get them to have a look at him to make sure that the string isn't doing any damage. I must keep the vets in business.

Yes do keep an eye - you know how it is when a drawstring gets stuck in an item of clothing? All ruched up and lumpy? The more you pull..... its highly unlikely but possible that string can do that to intestines. So if hes off colour especially vomiting its a trip to the vet. Probably be fine though

I'll have him so I can sing "he's fat, he's round, his belly's on the ground"

Just so you know, when it comes out the other end it comes out like a bead necklace. And you might have to assist....

Ugh. Poor fatty cat.

I'll swap you for Cheddar. I was away last night and had the best nights sleep in weeks.
