For a more serious reason this time.
I went to put some soft paws on his foot this morning and noticed that there was dry blood all around his pad. My mom was yelling at me to get out the door because I needed to go out some where. So I thought Ill just check it better when I get home.
So when I got home I bathed it and there were peices of fur just detaching from his skin with the dry blood attached and he was leeding again. I looked and it was all purple and swollen like a balloon.
We called the vet right away and they said they were booked shut. Then they looked out our last name and saw it was Hank and they said we can squeeze him in.:) :p
The vet said he has trauma to his foot and he probly got it stuck somewhere. Its bleeding because the bruising is so bad that its just oozing out.
He now has a blue bandage wrapped on his foot and hes going back on Thursday to get it removed. Hes got antibiotics and pain killers as well.
My poor boy is just so prone to getting into trouble!! We are getting insurence for him now because the vet said hed be like this problem though out his whole kitten years.
Ill get some pictures of him later with his bandage on.
WARNING GRAPHIC
These are pictures of his foot before we left for the vet. Scroll really fast if you dont want to see.
