Injured

[tinhuviel]

After my constant calling for a good half hour this morning, Smidgen finally appeared, walking oddly toward me like the good little Number One she is. Her gait was anything but, however, appearing more to be a strained partial stride. I scooped my baby up in my arms and brought her in to inspect her. Sure enough, in the vicinity of her right shoulder resides an angry wound, probably the result of a feline rumble. She either lost this one or the one she was fighting looks like a bloody Picasso. Now there's food for thought.

Anyway, I have some leftover antibiotics that I got for Chester's dental and am pumping Smidgen full of those now. Smidgen h has now been seriously medicated and transformed into a 24/7 house cat until I'm satisfied that she's once again whole.

Oh poor Smidgen! I hope he recovers quickly. Hopefully the other kitty is a mess!

Thanks. She's just lying low for today, keeping to herself. Poor kid. I hate having to hurt her to make sure she gets better, but there's nothing for it..

Thnk you, dearheart. It's gonna be a difficult next day & a half but, if we can make it through abscess free, we'll be home free!

She's got a couple of fair sized holes in her and I can't take her to the vet. Not sure what's gonna happen....

:( I know you will do your best by her.

She's got two fairly good-sized holes in her shoulder, too much for me to be able to handle. But the Mother Unit just sent me some money so I can take Smidge to the vet in the morning.

Thank you, my friend!

I'm glad Smidgy came home, and that Mother Unit came through. I know all too well the stress of a beloved companion taking a walk about. I hope my Vash is just purring up new owners.

Yeah, it wouldn't rankle so much had Motley not been missing since July 4th.

Oh, sweety, I'm so sorry! If you posted about it, I was distracted with moving and my own cat drama. HUGS! What thing gets into the feline mind that they would choose to leave home?
