Can you imagine the X-rays from a San Francisco hospital from people who accidently “sit” on objects.

Ya know? I tried going to the link to see all the history, but I got so sick I had to come back and tell you...I just cannot imagine people leaving anything “edible” where there are dogs and cats. And why were the dogs not monitored, while they ate so many rocks? I’m sorry, but I have NEVER left my pets outside unattended. Period.

I had a cat who ate a portion so fabric from the dust flap on an old piece of furniture. We had no idea what was wrong with him and neither did the vet for a day or two. Turned out the string had worked its way into the intestinal tract and caused a lot of damage. He had 60% of his intestines removed, lost half his body weight, and was touch and go with pancreatitis for awhile.

That was 3 years ago. The little dude has made a (slow) full recovery and is observing me as I type.

Reminds me of my crazy Siamese that ate all the rubber stooers off the door bumpers in the house. Cat just loved to chew rubber, like the mouthpieces off our scuba regulators.

Which of course we discovered shortly before the first dives of vacation.

And of course his fetish for string and yarn, great fun when it started coming out the other end. I believe there is a saying about that...........

After taking an X-ray we had figured out that it looked like a small fishing pole.

That musta hurt reel bad.

[Monkey Face]

Can’t watch that again. Sorry.

one year old Mastiff SNIP Surgery was performed, and an 8 inch metallic rachet wrench was removed along with the separated rachet pieces.

Mastiffs are really bad about swallowing things they should not . I came home from the grocery one day with 20 packages of meat and set them on top of the freezer in my garage . Walked inside with the rest of the groceries and came back out to find all the meat GONE . Didn't think anything about it as I figured my husband had put it in the freezer . Couple of days later while mowing the lawn I found the evidence under a tree . Mixed in his dropping was all the wrappings from those packages of meat . He just swallowed them whole .

Had another one swallow a stuffed toy whole while playing catch . Luckily he puked it up the next day.

My doggie’s favorite toy was Goofie. One day Goofie’s ear disappeared. Yes, it was in his stomach.
