SueOrr0103 Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 Hello,There is a cat outside my house and it looks injured. Looks like a car has run over its foot. Can anyone recommend how I can help? Apologies for the question, I don't have any pets so I have no idea, but want to help the poor thing.Regards,Sue Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/219923-cats-foot-run-over-by-a-car/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galileo Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 I would call the RSPCA helpline and ask for their advice. Alternatively local vets have emergency contact details, you could call and ask them.

SueOrr0103 Posted March 6, 2019 Author Share Posted March 6, 2019 Thanks we managed to contact the RSPCA emergency helpline and they are coming. Its a black and white cat missing an eye, just in case anyone recognises the cat.

rendelharris Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 Well done for taking the trouble, lots wouldn't. If you can, just as with humans, if you could get a blanket over the poor thing and keep it warm until help arrives that might be useful.

Xanadustar Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 If this is the Gordon I know of and who has been around for a long time in the Landells Road area, I'm very sorry to hear of his accident and wish him a speedy recovery. He is quite a character. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/219923-cats-foot-run-over-by-a-car/#findComment-1321592 Share on other sites More sharing options...

jtm Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 Yes that is Gordon. I've just looked on Facebook and seen the lovely photo of him. No update on his injuries yet. He is alive but his back legs are damaged. Thank you to all who communicated and for contacting the RSPCA. We are very grateful to you all. Gordon is a well loved cat residing in Landells Road.
