You must know the ER has to report dog bites. When my RB cat Amber bit me, the ACO visited me 3 days later. Amber's shots were up to date, and STILL he wanteed to take Amber for 10 day quarantine! Thank goodness Amber needed pills 3 timese a day and no way they could do that at the shelter, so he told me to keep the cat inside for 10 days. He was an indoor cat anyhow!

Sure hope you heal up quickly. So sorry this happened w/ you and Coco.

No the animal control officer wont be visiting us. All they asked me was if his shots were up to date, I said yes. In discharge paper work it states "you (patient) may have to report to animal control or police the bite". I believe it's for if you dont know the dog.

I'm not worried because I know the folks at shelter really well and one gal is a good friend.
