Valuable lesson learned last night. Do not be lazy and use the dog to clean up cake crumbs off the floor. Especially when your kid has left toys in the vicinity.

All happened in slow motion. One second the toy chicken was there. A moment of clarity that my idleness was a silly idea and then scoff, chicken snaffled up.

£75 trip to the vets to get her to sick it up.

I'd work that out as £1698 to the lbs. One costly chicken.

Is there a more expensive bird per lbs out there?

Probably, but is was an odd shape and I was concerned it would lodge some where. She's insured but thought best to have a go than have to cut her open.

Also, i didn't want to go through the poo-ltry. IGMC

Why did the chicken cross the alimentary canal?

If you'd had to go through the poo-ltry, it would have been foul.

IGMC also.

I had a similar thing with my cat the other week - she ate a plastic bag. The vet gave her something that would knock her out and probably make her sick, she just spaced out and went to sleep.

I spent the next 4 days breaking open every little "fortune cookie" until I had all the bag back and had a £100 bill for the midnight trip to the vet.

Sorry, must stay on topic. I must just be down on my cluck. That £75 was destined for a fork service.

Mine ate a crab apple. £2063 later, he's better, but has a huge scar in his abdomen and op sites in his stomach and gut.

Fruit's expensive, especially when it gets lodged in the pyloric sphincter.

glad the dogs ok

sort of was hoping someone had 3d printed a chicken burger - was in a diy barn the other day and they were selling dremel ones that looked like you could bodge in a microwave for an all in one

Surely that's Bernie's security man in drag?
