Thanks for reminding me to update, I'm really bad about that lol!
She's great! The puncture is healed up and the skin is back to normal. We definitely avoided a trip the vet.
I can’t do a cone because this cat loves the outdoors, and it’s almost impossible to keep her from escaping.
I’ve been spraying with Vetrycin and covering with Neosporin daily, and so far it’s scabbed over with no signs of infection. I’ll keep you guys posted on how it looks today. Thanks for...
Same here. We've never ever had a cat escape a Coyote attack. I could have been another cat, but I've heard about cat fights. It seems like the type of injury would be different. Plus, she was gone for 3 days, so were assuming she got chased by something, and hid in a tree until coming down...
Ya, thats my through. You'd think you'd see other scratches etc if it was a cat fight, and Stash would have lots of wounds as I know she would fight back.
This looks like a tooth or a claw. Maybe something swiped at her and missing? Man she's lucky. We're assuming it chased her up a tree, gave...
I was able to catch her and bring her in a couple hours ago. I got a good layer of Neosporin on it, and sprayed Bitter Yuck over the top so she doesn't lick it.
She escaped again not to long ago, but I think she'll come in soon as she's been sticking pretty close to home since the incident...
I wonder what it might have been that got her. We have almost every predator, but I'm thinking the most likely predator is Coyote. What do you think?
We have- Birds of prey, bears, Coyotes, Raccoons, Bobcats, Weasels, Cougars, and more. It could have been another cat, but we live in a small town...
Thank you! I'm going to give it a good cleaning this afternoon, I think it will need it. She snuck out the door this morning. She's an outdoor kitty all the way, its really hard to keep her inside.
Once she comes in tonight, I'll clean it the best I can and do my best to keep her in until its...
Ya, I figured we probably need to wrap her tighter.
Last night after she calmed down, she was laying the perfect position exposing the wound, and allowed me to cut the hair back a bit from the area. She started to get irritated, so I got a few good squirts with Veterycin before she was over it...
Thank you! I'm pretty sure she's up to date, thats totally a concern I didn't even think about.
We're so, so to have her back, she's such a good one. 🥰:celebrate
We've been so worried the last few days as our cat Stash, (named that after the white, "mustache" she sports above her nose 😂) ;disappeared without a trace since Sunday. No sign of her, and we live in an area were when cats disappear, they dont come back. Theres too many predators. She's an...
