PETS will eat anything … and these are the snaps to prove it.
Bizarre X-rays collected by vets across the US reveal the weird and wacky
things animal gobble up.
The rib-tickling shots include one of a dog that had swallowed its owner’s FALSE
TEETH.
Another shows a pooch which had guzzled an entire bottle of GLUE
which was surgically removed after it set into a perfect stomach shape.
The pics were all entered into a competition in America to find the wackiest
animal X-ray.
The contest, run by magazine Veterinary Practice News, was eventually won by a
dog which had wolfed down nine SNOOKER BALLS.
The unnamed hound was being treated for lameness at the Bayshore Animal
Hospital in Oregon when vets spotted the set of balls during a routine scan.
Among the runners-up was a six-month-old kitten who loved playing with her
owner’s guitar so much she swallowed a string which stretched the entire
length of her digestive system.
Judges also praised Penelope, a two-year-old duck addicted to gobbling NAILS.
Elisa Jordan, spokesman for the competition, said: “We’ve been doing this
contest for a few years now and we realise it’s not a good idea to say, ‘Now
we’ve seen everything’.
“We’re surprised by something that’s found in these radiographs every year.
Some of the pictures we receive are funny, others are tough to look at.
“The good news is that these animals have been successfully treated or
operated on so the stories have happy endings.
“We run this contest because it’s fun, but it’s also a testament to good
medicine and dedicated doctors.”
