    LOL... holding a warm damp cloth to Abby? I'd have better luck nailing Jello to a tree! I wouldn't exactly call it mushy, but it does have some give and is soft.

    Laura, once upon a time they liked each other. Then right before she was spayed, he started to really go after her. At the time, I think it was just his reaction to her "womanly" scent. But then she didn't trust him after the weeks of his chasing her so she decided that he was no good and reacts to him whenever he's near. She's the one who starts things between them more than he starts with her. When he starts things, he's like a pesty brother who wants to get things started, and the carrier has been a perfect opportunity to really terrorize her.

    It probably is a kitty pimple. Goldie used to get those. The warm compress (nailing jello technique ) and a dab o' Neosporin or other antibiotic cream should help.

    It's probably just a pimple. Pearl had one on her ear and I also thought it was an abcess at first. I mentioned it to my vet but she since she's still a kitten she wasn't too worried. I kept my eye on it and it eventually disappeared so hopefully this will be case with Abby too.
