Late last night we had a call from Medina Vets to say that they had a cat that had a serious tail injury. We agreed to take her in and it turned out that the tail injury was very nasty and the mid section of her tail had been completely de-gloved. We have decided to name her Cupcake, she is a gorgeous, young, tabby and white female. 
The decision was made that it was in Cupcake's best interest that her tail should be amputated. Fiona our vet has said that Cupcake probably got her tail caught in something, panicked and struggled to break free and this is when the damage was done. Fiona amputated the tail this morning as she was already on-site for a pre-arranged neutering session.
We are happy to say that the operation was a success and Cupcake is recovering well. You can really see from the photos the extent of the injury and what a fantastic job Fiona has done. Hopefully Cupcake will start to feel a lot better soon. We will keep you updated on her progress. For now she is receiving lots of TLC and some well earned rest and recovery.
