vodka cure saves puppy from certain death
For many people, arriving at A&E at death’s door and
being told the only way for you to survive was to get
blind drunk would count as a result. That’s the situation
Maltese terrier Charlie found himself in after being left
with hours to live after licking coolant from his owner
Jacinta Rosewarne’s garage.
Quick-thinking vets deduced that the little dog had
ethylene glycol poisoning, which can lead to kidney
failure – and the only treatment was to get him as drunk
as possible. Because pure alcohol can alter antifreeze
chemicals and allow them to be flushed out of an animal’s
body, Charlie was given 700ml of vodka over two days
via a tube. Animal Accident & Emergency wrote on its
blog: ‘For the whole weekend, Charlie had a huge party
with us in the Pet ICU.’
It almost certainly saved his life – but also left him with
an almighty hangover. ‘He was definitely drunk,’ said
Ms Rosewarne, from Melbourne, in Australia, told the
Herald Sun. ‘He was stumbling around, I’d go to pat him
and he’d push me away like a normal drunk person, he
was vomiting a little, whining like a drunk.’
She added: ‘I thought it was hilarious. It was distressing
but funny at the same time.’
new zealand Man who lost drunk poker bet with
friends gets ridiculous new name
Here’s why you should never get drunk and start placing
ridiculous poker bets.
One unfortunate New Zealander found out the hard way
after losing a bet which involved his friends choosing
him a new name if he lost.
The 22-year-old did lose and is now called Full Metal
Havok More Sexy N Intelligent Than Spock And All The
Superheroes Combined With Frostnova.
‘My friend lost a bet 5 years ago and his friends changed
his name,’ explained the man’s ‘friend’, who helpfully
posted the confirmation letter online.
‘He just found out it was actually accepted last week
when his passport expired. He has to wait 3 years to
fix it.’
The man’s new name will go ‘live’ on Monday when he
will also have to change the name on his driving licence
and other official documents.
