    Sweet Hazel, I hope you'll soon be on the mend. I had a kitten (he was a stray) that showed up on my porch with his mommy and 4 sisters, who had a horrible wound on his neck. We had to trap him in a humane trap and take him to the vet. The vet said it appeared to be an abscess from a cat bite that had ruptured-the poor baby's neck looked like someone had cut it with a chainsaw it was so ragged and sore. He has now had three surgeries and a few rounds of antibiotics and is doing wonderfully-all healed up with just some small scars. The biggest problem we had was keeping him from scratching at the wound and ripping it open. He is now a very contented (and spoiled) inside kitty who is about 10 months old named Sebastian. I hope all goes well with Hazel, and best wishes for a speedy recovery!!!
    They said this would've ruptured soon if she hadn't gotten in!!
    Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) is a full management plan in which stray and feral cats already living outdoors in cities, towns, and rural areas are humanely trapped, then evaluated, vaccinated, and sterilized by veterinarians. Kittens and tame cats are adopted into good homes. Healthy adult cats too wild to be adopted are returned to their familiar habitat under the lifelong care of volunteers

    I'm so glad it was just an abscess - all night long I was worried about it being something else.

    Hazel is such a lucky lady to have you for a mom. Please give her a hug for me.

    She is so blessed to have you looking after her. Hugs to you and kisses to Hazel. Get better soon.
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!
