A terrified cat named Taby that limped home covered in blood was found to have a bullet lodged in its shoulder. John Price took his cat to be x-rayed and it revealed a bullet from a .22 rifle lodged in the cat’s shoulder. Vet Simon Shanklin of Haygate Veterinary Centre said: “It’s quite common for us to see cats that have been shot with an air rifle. This cat had been shot by a .22 rifle - a true rifle. That’s quite unusual.” Top right: the bullet alongside a one penny piece
