Vambo got a bit confused trying to find the start point of a black headed rat. He took it by the scruff of the neck and worked his way down to the bum end but gave up on that as a bad idea. After a bit of snuffling he got a bit frustrated at not finding the head and lined up to take a chunk out of his own side. EEK! NOOO!
I managed to deter this attempt at self cannibalism but ended up wearing a set of python-cuffs ... around both wrists. Jeezoh! is he getting to be a strong lad. BTW, the rat was also still somewhere in the middle of the stramash.
It ended up with him deciding that my knuckle looked pretty rattish and was having it. Switch to slow motion bite sequence, just like they do in all the best horror movies. 
Those teeth are not designed for any direction except in and down. I managed to wriggle two fingers free and get hold of a ball point pen and use it to first (very gently) unlatch the bottom jaws and rotate my finger in ways that it was not intended to free it from the top set. After that it was a case of waiting until he re-discovered the rat and loosened his grip enough for me to unwrap and escape.
The amazing fact is that his strangle hold on my wrists acted as a touniquet and stopped me bleeding to death. 
The victim and the accused.
Mortal wound
Prime suspect. The deadly long necked crocagator washing away the forensic evidence.
After major reconstruction surgery, the head surgeon says it's touch and go, the next 24 hours will be critical.
As you can see, the damage was minor. I've had worse bite from Mirkey & Big T but I know there are ghouls lurking around here.  |

Checked out as in fine fettle by the vet and about 4'9". Age wise I don't know but would take a rough guess at about 4 years old. 
This was for cashing in my re-homer reward points for previous problems.
I won't be taking any Hoggies so you can nip in and stake your claim. |

Believe it or not he was abandoned in a student flat. They just upped sticks and left him behind. So far he has been a saint when handled and we'll find out what his table manners are like tonight.
Photos of ensuing carnage will be posted ASAP if I survive.
How old, what condition was he in? so much for only taking in hard to rehome ones! If you come across a hoggie, let me know and HANDS OFF!!! dont think i could resist a rehome hoggie, dont care what the OH says |

I'm not laughing Mick. Honest.
The wee ones still have needle sharp teeth and give a nip.
Photos and drama is to let folk see that bites really are not as bad as they imagine. OK a couple of punctures and a little discomfort but no torn strips of flesh.  |

Spreebok, Salmonella is the least of your problems. Panic when you start sprouting feathers in unusual places. 
Mick, you know the rules. A&E admission report or it doesn't count.
SB, your concern is duly noted.
After all the trauma, I now have a shiny blue belly thing.
Sorry mate, I'll make sure she does a proper job next time |
