After visiting my parents last night, Dad said Kia could stay the night.

Then this morning at work, Dad called me and said that Kia was bleeding all over and she wouldn't let him find what was wrong.

So I rushed over there, and together we located the wound. I cracked open my new first aid kit and we put ointment and gauze on it, bandaged it up and I rushed her to the vets.

Turns out, one of her anal glands had ruptured.

She's got a dime sized hole now near her butt that has to be left un-bandanged. She's also on pills and ointment. From time to time I'll need to hold a warm compress on it to help alleviate the pain.

My poor girl.
