Thank you for sharing. We had this happen to a dog many years ago. The dog didn't seem to be bothered, but the lump was unsettling to us, so we took her to the vet. The vet called it "wolves" and then mentioned warbles. I had never heard of either. Thank God we are attentive guardians.
Thanks for commenting, Neither had I heard of these nasty larva until I saw the photo on the vet's Flickr page. It looks horrible but as you say dogs tolerate it.
The vocal repertoire of the jaguarundi is "totally different from other felines". Perhaps this is not surprising as the jaguarundi looks different to all other felines! It looks like a marten or weasel or similar non-feline creature. The jaguarundi is a bit of an anomaly and classifying the species has been difficult. Jaguarundi - Photo Dave Irving . Balazs Buzas and Eszter Gulyas working at the Rare Species Conservation Centre in Sandwich, Kent, England, have raised jaguarundi cubs and in doing so have observed at first hand their vocalisations. They confirm the sounds made by this interesting wild cat as recorded by Cutter (1957) and Hulley in 1976. There are 13 different sounds apparently: Short whistle: used for attention seeking. The response is a single "peep". Long whistle: a greeting. Chirp: calling when the other cannot be seen. Short purr: female calling kittens. Calling each other. Long purr: expression of contentment as for the d
Here is a veterinarian's photograph of a cat with gingivitis (inflammation of the gums). It is quite educational, I think. We all need to spend a bit of time looking at our cat's teeth! It is easy to forget about them. They are rather tucked away in the mouth aren't they? LoL. However, judging by the number of photographs on the Flickr channel of the Cuyahoga Falls Veterinary Clinic , periodontal disease is commonplace in dogs and cats. Often mouth disease can progress to a serious state. This can be avoided. The source of this photo is Flickr channel referred to.

Cat with gingivitis - Photo Cuyahoga Falls Veterinary Clinic In a healthy mouth the gums surround the teeth is a nice, clean fit along the gum line. Cats with gingivitis have gums that have been pushed away from the teeth in an irregular manner because of a build up of rough-edged, dental calculus. At these poin
Rarely, do we see cats with perfectly symmetrical patterns . Sometimes, perhaps most times, it is due to selective breeding. Cat breeders focus on appearance so in certain breeds a nice symmetrical pattern will make the cat more desirable. Siamese cats are naturally symmetrical. The classic inverted "V" on the forehead of the Turkish Van is symmetrical. That cat is all white except for a patterned tail so the classic Turkish Van is symmetrical. You'll find that the most attractive Japanese Bobtails have symmetrical patterns. These are bicolor cats and the bicolor lends itself to nice symmetrical coat patterns. Tabby coats are more random. I would say that there are more purebred cats with symmetrical patterns than there are random bred. But when random selection, Darwin style, throws up a nice symmetrical pattern is it a sign that a cat has better health than other cats? In purebred cats I don't think that a symmetrical pattern means better health because the pat
