Bitten in the Tail

My poor cat Sadie had to taken to the veterinarian today. We had a stray cat that looked much like her - only a male...and he was quite territorial. When I fed him - Sadie thought she'd induldge - and he ended up biting her.

So - her tail is shaved and the vet gave her 2 injections. One for the fever reducer and then an antibiotic. Poor baby. No wonder she hasn't wanted to eat.

Now I must apply a salve on her two wounds and give her antibiotics orally.

NOT at all an easy task - but necessary.

I just hope she doesn't get cat luekemia!

Next time a stray shows up - I think I'm driving it to the animal shelter immediately from now on.
