On Wednesday, October 22 at 1:30 in the afternoon, I gladly arrived home from spending 5 days in the hospital.
The absolute first thing I did was ‘open up’ the apartment, including letting the Sisters out. Though they had had a ‘caretaker’, they had not been outside for 5 days.
An hour later, first Lucy, then Ethel came racing in the door as if being chased by the biggest dog in the world. I had been in the living room and dining room, and had heard no signs of trouble, no barking, no cat fights, etc.
Still, I did a double take, because of their panicked return; and was amazed to find this horrible wound on Ethel’s left flank. It has never been determined WHAT happened to her. I could not believe our ‘luck’.
BTW, these pics were taken a couple of days AFTER vet care! And the 'missing fur' was caused by the injury, whatever that was, and not medical care.

Dear Ethel,
ReplyDeleteThis is why I never come out of my nice safe closet.
