Cats
A cat named Oscar that had its back feet severed by a combine harvester, has been given two prosthetics in a pioneering operation.
The new feet are custom-made implants that “peg” the ankle to the foot.
They are bioengineered to mimic the way deer antler bone grows through the skin.
The operation – a world first – was carried out by Noel Fitzpatrick, a veterinary surgeon based in Surrey, UK.
His work is explored in a BBC documentary called The Bionic Vet.

I was walking around the neighborhood on Halloween looking at all of the decorations, when I heard a kitten crying. I followed the meowing and there was this terrified, beautiful yellow-white kitten hiding on the wheel well of a car! I chased it to the back yard of a neighbor but couldn’t catch it. The neighbor was nice enough to trap the kitten and called me when he had her in a cage. She had been abandoned so we took her home & named her Bianca. After a couple of months I noticed that “she” may be a “he”. After a visit to the vet, we confirmed that “she” was a boy! We re-named her Benito. He is such a blessing. He has taken over the house and gives all of my other 3 rescue cats a run for their money. Life wouldn’t be the same without Beni!
