It seems Kamco (COTD June 15, 2003) picked up a fight with another cat or dog (the vet thinks it's a dog, inferring from the wounds). He got severely bitten in the tummy, and it seems he developed an infection inside. He had to have surgery to remove some tissues and damaged muscle yesterday. The vet says he should be in there for about a week... He should be fine, but I feel terrible having to leave him there for so long. Please say a prayer for him.
