If you would like to consider the fact that we have had animals since I was born I do believe we know how to take care of animals. So please do not question my motives. If I was an animal abuser, do you really think that I would post something on here to help my animal? I think not. I love my animals to death. My cat, mercedes, I have taken care of her ever since she was 5 weeks old. Now she is 2 years old and healthy as can be. Jax, he had parvo before, he got all the treatment he needed and we paid a 500 dollar bill to make sure that his life was saved. If I abused him I wouldn't have done that either, I would have let him die. But I didn't did I? Right now I am doing everything that I can and borrowing money from everyone that I know. I should be able to get him to the vet by saturday. Until then I am doing what the vet told me to do, and that is to clean the wounds and put triple antibiotic on it. I shall keep all informed on how he is doing. As for the collar, I never said that is how he got wounded. It turns out that he got cuts when he got into another fight with a dog. A vet said it wasn't serious and let them heal, well, looks like they didn't heal. I know how to take care of an animal, if I didn't all 7 would be dead.
