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.
Oh, poor Kamco! :( I'm sure the vet wants to keep an eye on him after the surgery and make sure the infection goes away. I hope that handsome Meezer boy gets well soon!
We will keep him in our prayers, poor kitty! And you, too, this will not be an easy week. Perhaps it's time for him to be indoor only for a while!
Get well soon Kamco
I visited Kamco in hospital today and he seems to be doing okay. He woke up when I entered the room, and tried to rub his face against my hand. He has on a collar to keep him from licking his tummy, and a needle and bandage on his front paw for receiving injections. I can see his tummy is now completely bare, fur-less. I'm worried about him because he seems so frightened of dogs in other kennels. When I tried to leave, he meowed for me to stay. I hope he is not in pain. Thank you so much for your prayers.
I'm glad he is improving. I know you must be frantic with worry! Hopefully, Kamco will be able to come home soon so you can be with him every minute. I will certainly keep him in my prayers.
Poor Kamco :( get well soon sweetie. annkim, I will be keeping both you and Kamco in my prayers.
From the description of Kamco's injuries, I'd say he got caught by a large dog. I have lost several furkids, in my old home area, due to them jumping into a fenced area with large dogs. You are definitely fortunate that Kamco is still alive after such an enounter. Please keep us posted on his recovery.
So sorry to hear about Kamco. You are both in my thoughts and prayers.
:( poor sweety...Just make sure and visit everyday if they let you... ((hugs))
I hope Kamco gets better soon!
Get well soon, Kamco! We'll be thinking of you.
Hugs and prayers going out to Kamco! Get well soon, little guy.

Kamco, are you feeling better today? I'm so glad you got to the hospital for help - but your family misses you so much! Get well fast - and don't be too scared of the big doggies!
GET WELL SOON precious KAMCO, its always awful to see your furbaby in distress, dont worry the vets are really good at keeping their pain at bay, im sure he will be ok.
My sooti used to be as bold as brass and take on dogs, some cats are just like that, lets hope kamco has no more encounters with the other species.
Awwww, poor little thing! :( Please let us know how Kamco is going...we'll be praying hard for a quick recovery.
sorry to hear the newz:( .
my kitty angel, tabitha, had gotten in some fight too, when she was younger.
she too had an infection in her face from the wound.
the good newz is kamco made it great thru the surgery.
and the days following. those seem to be the most critical time.
now that the wounded tissue and muscle is removed, antibiotics,
time, and lotz of lovin' put kamco over the hump.
hang in there, kamco knows your worried.
This is so sad. Prayers and positive thoughts are on the way for Kamco. Please get better soon.
How is Kamco? It's been several days.:confused:
Yes, I'm wondering too how things are going???
I am really sorry to hear about your baby! :( I hope he gets better soon!
