So were they able to fix the kids tongue or what?

Thing was that it was a trusted, mild pet who never did anything like that before. The boy was in a crid raised above the floor approx 1.5 to 2 feet while the rat was (supposed to be) on the floor. How can you foresee that kind of thing happening? Also, how are you going to not have a cat around your kids if he's already a household pet? Cats can climb and get into basically wherever they want in a house. You'd have to get rid of it NOT to have it around your kids.
Ref Jake's tongue: He's about 8 years old now and still has a little bit of a cleft on the end of his tongue. The surgery just required a tetanus shot and a couple of stiches if I remember correctly.
