Poor Peggy hurt her paw!!! (new update #25 + new pics)

Oh, poor Peggy, that paw must have been hurting bad.

I'm glad that the medicine seems to kick in, and hopefully she'll be fine in a few days.

I wish your mother would keep her inside though - I bet Peggy wants to go and get revenge. Not a good idea!

She has the most amazing markings, what a pretty girl.

Poor Peggy !!

But her pictures are beautiful as always. May her paw heal mighty quick !!!!

Peggy, I am so glad you're feeling more like yourself. It sounds like the medicine is working. Paws and fingers crossed that you will adjust to being an indoor-only kitty.

Oh my gosh, that was one nasty infection! I'm sure she's been running a fever, that's why she hasn't been eating! Poor baby, I hope that antibiotic is kicking in now. I understand your lack of control over your Mom and Reinhold, Kirsten, but it sure would be hard letting her back outside with those nasty Marlens again!

Thank you!!

Her paw looked so much better today!! Almost back to its normal size.

It still seems to hurt, but Peggy's almost back to her old self, looks like the antibiotics did a good job.

Hi Peggy, I'm happy to know that your ouchie paw is getting better. Just be sure to take your medicine and remember that the whitecoat is your friend. Please don't worry about being an indoor kitty. I've been an indoor kitty since Meowmie and Soncat adopted me when I was a baby. It's really not so bad, you can have lots of fun inside finding great hidey places to sleep and play. My squirrel and bird friends visit me at my window and we talk and talk all day. But most important, it's safe inside. There are no cars to worry about, no kids chasing you all over and no scary animals that might hurt you. I heard Meowmie say that some hoomins aren't very nice to kitties and sometimes there are stories about them on PT. When you stay inside, you're always warm and dry plus your food dish is always right there so you can munch out anytime you want to. And you never have to worry about getting lost and not being able to find your home or purrents. I love to explore our house when Meowmie and Soncat are at work, often I find a new place to play hide & seek with my family. That's loads of fun. Well, I have to go now and get ready for a case in Cat Court tomorrow. There are lots of indoor kitties here at PT and we're all here for you!

Your friend,
Groucho

I am glad to hear Peggy looks and feels better.
I think that was dangerous. These martens are known to be killers and I suppose they could hurt a kitty badly (while I still think they are the cutest little bad guys

).
Peggy was lucky that she only was bitten in the paw.
All the best to her.
