At this time, we need a veterinarian who is experienced and adaptable. The Albuquerque Animal Welfare Bureau in New Mexico received a seriously injured kitten. It was only 5 weeks old when it first arrived. The bones on its face and chin were broken by some unknown reason, causing it to be unable to close its chin and it was difficult to eat.
5-week-old kitten can be held up with one palm. To help it treat a fracture on its face, it requires quite detailed surgery. After repeated attempts by the veterinarians, they found that surgery on the kitten was not the biggest problem. In fact, they had adjusted the position of the bones for the kitten several times, but it still had a serious bite problem and the mouth still could not be closed well. This is mainly because the fracture situation of a kitten is relatively complicated. The most authoritative and professional veterinary dentists in the local area have all come to give the kitten a group consultation. The result is: if you want to completely improve the fracture problem of a kitten, you must perform many surgeries. The cost of the surgery is still quite expensive even with the sponsorship of a public welfare fund.
Even if it can be cured, it is a question whether the body can withstand it. This is too risky and costly, so the veterinarians decided to change their thinking. Since the kitten is still young, it is better to use some other methods to help it. So a veterinarian had an idea and thought of using buttons to fix the cat's chin.
The veterinarian put two buttons on the kitten's cheek, one button is placed on the kitten's chin, and sew them from the inside of the kitten's mouth with thread. The length of the thread is just right, so the kitten can close his mouth normally, and it does not prevent him from eating. The three buttons and wires form a support and stable device, perfectly solving the occlusal problem that originally required multiple surgeries to correct. As the kitten grows, the animal's powerful self-healing ability can gradually heal its injuries.
buttons are very cheap, and this operation is very simple to implement, reducing the pain suffered by the kitten to a minimum. Moreover, it is very convenient to remove the kitten after heals in the future. Just cut the thread and remove it. Practice has proved that this idea is very successful. It has been 3 weeks since the operation. The kitten has no obstacles in eating and drinking water, and its body is much rounder than when he first came.
Treating pets may cost a lot or it may be very simple. Keeping pets is most afraid of getting sick. Pets cannot speak, and they have to rely on their owners to observe and guess wherever they feel uncomfortable. When entering a pet hospital, the expenses are like bottomless pits are not accurate. Which little cutie is not the owner's heart? It is the concept of many owners to try to cure them no matter how difficult it is. It is of course the best for pets with owners to spend money on themselves. The chances of stray cats and dogs being rescued are much higher than those of domestic pets, but there is no fixed owner to pay for them. How to use the lowest cost to provide the most effective treatment is the problem that many veterinarians who often help rescue stray animals face.
Stray animals often encounter car accidents, fall from buildings, bitten by other animals, stuck in inexplicable places, or are attacked and injured by bad people. Even if they can meet kind-hearted people before they die of injuries, they will be sent to pet hospitals, but whether they can be cured and how to cure them depends on luck. Just like this kitten in the article, the traditional treatment method is time-consuming and labor-intensive, but it may not be better, but if you change your thinking, it can be easily and simply done. Although this treatment seems to be very funny, it is full of doctors' experience and imagination.
