How's Puff doing?

Just got home! I was there FOREVER! My vet did not get in until 2:30 today. I got to see her at 4.

Puff has an abcess. From what it looked like, it was 3 cat bites, and one went completely through. I am SO angry at Kohl.. I know it was him, he always is mean and bites her ears, this time he just went too far.

She is home and resting, her ear was shaved. She is on a anti-inflammatory/pain killer twice daily, and on clavamox 2 times a day also.

By time I got there, it had burst, and blood was all over me, the carrier, Puff and the car. You ought to have seen the looks people were giving me, like I hurt her or something

Anyways, I have cream to put on it too, because the Dr. said it might have damaged the tissue, and if that is the case, she would need surgery, but that is unlikely, she thinks. She lost one pound since the last visit(10 months ago) and her temp was high (104.9).... Because of infection. BUT she does feel not so hot/feverish now.

Thank you all SO much for the prayers and well wishes! I will try to get pictures of her later, now that she does not look so gruesome

That poor baby. Abcesses are evil! Aroara sends her regards. Hope she heals well and quickly.

Here are a few pictures when we got home and she got cleaned up a bit! Her sissy Hannah is staying with her in the spare room for the night(the only room in the house that is a no cat zone ). I do not want another incident anytime soon!
It is looking better already... I am so glad she seems to be relieved now.
