  • what happens when a cat eats chicken legs, bones and all
    does it go through them or do they have to have operations get the bits removed ?

  • It depends if they were cooked or not. If we're talking raw chicken, probably nothing much happens other than a dead chicken and a satisfied cat. But if they are cooked chickens, then there's a chance that the bones can crack and splinter in the cat's mouth and cause lacerations of the mouth, throat, and digestive tract, which would be painful and may require surgery to repair.

  • Were they cooked?

  • Check the poop to make sure no blood, but as others said cooked chicken bones can be an issue, there was a picture up thread of a chicken bone that had been removed from a cats jaw/teeth.

  • Well if mine is anything to go by, they get stuck in their throats and have to be operated on to remove it. How I found her at the shelter all those years ago.
