The bite Molly received on her butt seemed to heal itself just fine, but apparently she also got herself a puncture wound to the stomach which has become infected. Nothing too bad, just discomfort and 10 days of me showing antibiotics down her throat twice a day—plus, of course, the dreaded blue collar. Of course there’s a good reason for it—keeping her from licking her infected wound with her bacteria-filled mouth—but Molly doesn’t quite see it that way. So I look forward to lots of head shaking and coming home from work to find the collar on the floor and Molly gnawing on herself.
Poor sad kitty.
