An emergency came into the living room one night...
"Momma, do you think he can be saved?"
....
....
...
....
It was touch and go for a few minutes.
Momma's hands suddenly couldn't thread a needle.
Finn had to be brought into the waiting room (kitchen).
The lion needed to be sedated.
The surgery was successful and Mr. Lion rests post-op.
And he's back in the game.
Being bitten in the same arm which almost fell off several moments before.
Thank you to Cotton for this award! We love it!
I'm glad the patient could be saved, and I think Mr. Lion agrees too with his 'thumbs up' afterwards--Who gets the bill for this surgery though? :-)
ReplyDeleteI hope you're all doing well, and enjoy your weekend!!
Well done Mom for saving Mr. Lion...who lives to fight another day!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your award :-)
Wow that was nearly touch and go. Well done mum. Have a great Saturday.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes Molly
What a soldier....from the ER straight back into action!
ReplyDeleteWow - good save! Similar emergencies in my house generally result in death by de-stuffing. I've never seen my momma use a needle and thread.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your award!
I hope you and your humans have a nice weekend!
your pal,
Garth

Do you think your surgeon could come here and try to save the many animals in trouble from the Jaws of Steel master Lightning?
