Ouch Kim i feel your pain , having been on the receiving end of my dear cat Ash once, while try to stop him in a cat fight,i had a shot in my butt too, but i did not need the rabies as we don't have them down under, so i really feel for you having to keep going and getting them, it looks very painful and i know that it is, i hope you heal well and soon are pain free, take much care, love and hugs.
