Blood, Blood Everywhere
I walk in the door this afternoon after a busy day at work and to my horror I find blood EVERYWHERE. Not just a drop here and there but pools of it on the floor, counter, and on the high up shelves. Blood splatters were all over the walls, ceiling, doors, cabinets, and mirrors. I started searching for all the cats in hopes I wouldn’t find one dead or near death from an injury. My first thought was Leila since she was such a newby, but she was fine. I kept searching one by one then Mouser came out running to me acting strangely. At first I didn’t notice anything wrong with him, but as I was investigating the bedroom he jumped on the counter by the sink and I noticed part of his tail appeared missing. I called Kevin and he came home and rushed Mouser to the vets. They were packed with people so we had to leave him there and are waiting for their call. In the meantime we’ve been scrubbing everything and cannot believe the mess. To our amazement there wasn’t a drop of blood on any of the furniture. We’re wondering if he got his tail caught in something, or there was a major fight. Here’s just a few examples of what we saw. This doesn’t show you all the splatters on walls etc. but will give you an idea.

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
