I love seeing them.
I fucking hate cleaning up after them, though. Tons of stuff to pack and sterilise.

the worse bit is finding the lumps of bone all over the place..
they crack like popcorn when you step on them.

Nice.
I saw a few spinal ops in the last few weeks, they use pliers to snap off bits of the spine to use as bone graft.

'fraid not.
I'm a clinical scientist, I was only there to see the spinal cord monitoring.

Nice.
Don't worry, you won't feel them passing electricity through your spine.
Seriously though, they do a good job.

We've come a long way.
Don't have to wait for the lightning strikes any more, and they usually don't go insane.
Usually.

We don't seem to get much bone on our floor, now you mention it.
Jez is probably too anal to let any fall.

to be fair,
i wouldnt imagine there was much to throw about on something the size of a cat..

We don't do them on cats, they get femoral head and neck excisions, a pseudo joint forms, and they're grand.
Cats have brilliant bones. We usually do them on big ones like labs and weimaraners.

psuedo joint?
do the ends just round off or something?
