The Knicker Thief

Max was brought in one morning looking very depressed and uncomfortable.

He had been vomiting and was immediately put on a drip. Scans and X-rays followed and the results made us highly suspicious that he had swallowed something and it was stuck !

Max was prepared for surgery on off he went to theatre for surgeon Phil Owen to try and put him right.

The gut was hugely dilated and on incision a very putrid sausage shaped object was gently pulled out from the friable intestine.

Once removed , it took us a moment to identify the foreign invader as a pair of rather stretched knickers that he had stolen from the laundry basket!

Happy to report, Max is doing fine and will have all his stitches out this week.
