So this morning, I saw a bit of canine acrobatics. Dog (on leash) tried to jump out in front of car. Owner yanked on leash. Dog went flying and flailing. Probably almost choked the dog, but understandable under the circumstances.
I accidently did a similar thing once. I wanted to get my dog used to walking next to a bike. So cycling really slow I had to concentrate on not falling over and didn't notice where exactly my dog went. Unfortunately she went left of the lamp post while I went right... The leash yanked my hand around, which of course gripped the handlebars, which of course send the bike spiraling. The result was both of us lying on the floor staring at each other.
Yikes, that poor cat and the <insert disapproving adjective of your choice> vet. Not even bothering to see the cat or at least give clear instructions.
@Stephie I also feel like the new question is more on-topic than the first one. OP made their situation clear and have already contacted a vet. We probably would allow the same question if they said "I'm in the middle of rural Nowhere and there is no vet around".
I take my kids to the ER only when the wound is beyond my “I can do that with my first aid box” abilities, e.g. needs stitches, x-ray or further examination.
Like the two-inch, half-inch deep slash minor 1 gave himself two weeks ago. Drove over, got him stitched up. Aftercare was dealt with chez nous again.
I'm just afraid that whatever tissue is still hanging from the wound needs to be removed. If I were in OP's situation, I would probably have to solve this somehow, but I'm not comfortable giving them any advice regarding the procedure, especially since I cannot even see what exactly it is that's still hangin on.
