Bella, Hedgehogs & Gizmo

Gizmo the kitten is brought in with a broken leg after an accident at home. He is 6-year-old Summers close companion and she is anxious to get her furry friend back home.

A convoy of carriers arrives in reception holding four young hedgehogs each with a broken left hind leg. Surrey charity, Wildlife Aid, hope Noel will be able to fix the little hoglets so they can be eventually be released back into the wild.

Professor Noel Fitzpatrick is faced with one of his most challenging cases yet. Bella the Boxer is referred to the practice after being involved in a road accident a year earlier that left her with extensive injuries to her pelvis and hind legs. Noel offers the family the option of new stem cell scaffolding technology that has never before been attempted to fill such a large area of lost bone. The procedure comes with significant risk and there are no guarantees of success, but this may be Bella’s last hope.
