It’s been a long time since I did any cat blogging. I can’t promise what I didn’t deliver before (regular cat blogging), but with five cats, there’s usually something going on… Take Wednesday. Please.
Shortly after I got home from dropping my wife off at the airport Wednesday evening, I found Samantha. Or perhaps she found me. She had a slice on the outer edge of her ear, with a piece hanging on and flopping around. I have no idea what happened and though I first saw her inside, we have a pet door. There is no way to know and she’s not telling. None of our other cats have a mark on ‘em, and they’re not likely suspects.
An emergency visit to the vet’s and she’s … not gonna be quite as good as new, but close. He was able to connect most of it back but had to cut off the thinnest part and cauterize the tip (of the reattached slice). She will have a noticably altered ear.
She’s doing better than I would be. She’s not bothering it at all, the wound is staying clean, and she acts like it doesn’t hurt. I’m not so sure but she’s doing the prairie-dog thing where she head-butts my hand as I reach down to her and she’s soaking up the extra attention. She wants outside like always. Two more days and then we’ll see.
The pet door has been locked since she got home with all five cats inside and under supervision. If she can’t go out, nobody can! Hardly any sparks, but a lot of whining…
She goes back in a week to get the stitches removed.
