This has been on my mind all day.

The selfishness and lack of compassion from someone that thinks they are an animal lover... this enrages me.

I think someone should phone the SPCA on her. If she has an animal that is in dire need of veterinary attention and she REFUSES to take it in, then she is making a choice to let this animal suffer.

She took it on, it is her responsibility and it is in her care.

She is negligient and she is contributing to the suffering of an animal in her care.

The animal needs to be removed, and if deemed appropriate charges laid against her.

Hi,


I don't see how the animal has any chance of coming back from that kind of damage at all.

Even if it managed to avoid the infections and survive long enough for scar tissue to form what range of motion or sensation could it realistically have?

It would be a rare vet willing to try and help this animal do anything but die pain free as quickly as possible.

Home/ no treatment for any animal with that severe an injury is the absolute opposite of kindness.

I don't doubt the intentions she had were good but the end effect is horrible in the extreme from the animals point of view.

However I can see a rat being able to inflict that kind of damage quite quickly - overnight would be plenty of time for a determined or hungry rat to do that kind of damage.

I hope she comes to her senses quickly or someone calls the authorities - sitting watching it suffer is no answer I could live with and call myself human let alone an animal lover.

Hi,

She does keep saying it has no nerve damage - does anyone know what its range of movement is like?

In the conversation she and I were having in chat on that board, she did mention that it can move. Of course, her account of events is questionable as she is not a qualified technician of any kind. I am hoping to have the animal removed soon - if she'll give me her address.

If you guys seriously think there is some chance that the local SPCA would care enough about this situation to intervene, then please help me locate them. I've asked for her address but I'm not sure she's going to give it to me. In the meantime, here are some leads:

The photobucket account was listed as "urt_starion". Googling that name yields "ducxtreme". Googling that yields a bunch of pages put up by a guy calling himself Mr. Pat. This is all relevant because the person who showed up to defend her on the other forum calls himself Mr. Pat - so they're either very familiar or related or room-mates or something.

I found a number and an address posted by Mr. Pat on another forum in 05, but it might be too old or be the address for a garage:

Funny how they have so much money for fixing up cars and gaming online, but they can't even get some Rx NSAIDs for their "rescue".

I used to work at a humane society and our animal control would take welfare calls quite frequently and go out just to check on a situation. If the address posted on the other forum is correct, Wyandotte Animal Control would be the first ones to try (and if they aren't the correct party they should be able to direct you to someone who can be of more assistance). Here is contact info I found on Petfinder

Wyandotte Animal Control

Wyandotte, MI 48192

So, I'm looking at Wyandotte's website and it lists the animal control number as voice mail only. The non-emergency police number is 734-324-4405 some one should answer that and might be able to help you. Best of luck, I wish I were closer... grrrr.....

If I could, I would drive down to get this animal from her, but I do have to work during the day.
Has anyone given her the list of vets?
