Lynn, you are most definitely correct about the fur and claws. I have seldom witnessed such vicious cat fights by two females for no other reason than not liking each other. The only other time I saw a more vicious fight was when Midnight (my outdoor dominant male) was fighting away a neighbor's brown tabby, named "Babe". I could actually feel the ground shake with a "thud" when Midnight took on Babe, after a brief stalk, grabbing him with his claws and both flipped into the ground . The only thing that saved Babe, is that his legs are much longer than Midnight's In fact, Babe is built more like a miniature cheetah, with equal running abilities. Not thinking like a cat, it doesn't make sense how two cats can fight when one female does not like another one, for no other apparent reason.
Princess has been eating a lot of food, which is a good sign. She looked starved when she came in yesterday. BTW Princess is sleeping again next to me by the keyboard. I suspect that she will stay inside of her own accord, at least until she is better. I would prefer to keep her as a special pet rather than re-home her. But if this fighting and attacking doesn't stop with all of them being spayed, then I can see little alternative.
