Reason number 68 not to let your cat outside...


Remember that little tiff Nick had the other night? Well, Mark noticed him licking his chest, and we discovered that he had a broken abscess on his chest. It appears to be draining fine, so I'll clip the fur (oh, I'm sure he'll love that!) and put some triple antibiotic it once he's napping. We wondered why he was spending so much time napping during this gorgeous weather these past few days. He's probably had a bit of a fever, and I'm sure it hurt, too.  Posted by Picasa

Ouch..hope he feels better soon :)

We have 2 cats, and live out near a farm...the farmer has 6 of the biggest, meanest cats you've ever seen, so ours get themselves in the wars a fair bit too ;)

Yikes! That looks bad. Cat wars are scary. And the ones between my own two cats are freaky enough! Nuh-uh. No going exploring outside. Never ever.
