Hello all.  I just got to thinking of this and it's going to drive me mad now!  This would have been ~early 90s, i had a stuffed/plush cat toy about 16in or so, that had all kinds of bandages and stuff that went with it.  It was sat upright and a "cartoon" cat style, very plump and cuddly and generally looking like it had been in a nasty fight with another cat!  I can barely recall the ads for it, you were meant to be like the "vet" and nurse the kitty.  No idea what they were called.  Anybody have a clue?

Wish i could!  It might be around here somewhere, else it was probably lost during a move  :-\ 

I think what i remember of it was that it was grey/white, would have been a commercial toy as i seem to remember an advert for it, had a couple of it's "bandages" stitched on, and others were removable like the velcro cast and little arm sling.

Nah, this kitty wasn't that beaten up!  It was a "fibre" stuffed plushie and also bigger.  About the size of a "Purr-tender" cat (around 16in. i'd say, sitting upright, not on all fours).  I don't think it "did" anything like the "Kitty Check-up" doll.  I'm surprised at it being so hard to find because i'm sure they were a widely marketed thing around '90-92 or so.

I'm in the States :)
