Ohmygawd!
You all heard what happened with Bandit getting burned at the vet - well,
the problem was even worse. This morning when I was petting her I noticed matted hair on her back by her tail. I got out the wire brush to get the mat out and her hair came out in a huge clump. A patch of skin about 1/2 inch wide and 2 inches long was laid bare and I could see she had been burned there also!!!! It didn't look *nearly* as bad as the one on her belly - it was just where her skin had peeled (like when you get a bad sunburn) and the underlayer was raw like a bad scrape. It's not infected, probably because of the Clavamox she's been taking since Monday night, but *OHMYGAWD*!!! I put a heavy layer of Silvadine on it, and I think it should be OK without having to take her to the ER. More purrs for my poor baby would be greatly appreciated! -- Hugs, CatNipped http://www.PossiblePlaces.com/CatNipped/ |

Poor Bandit. You should tell the vet next time you see her or maybe even call her. Purrs for Bandit. -- Britta "There is no snooze button on a cat who wants breakfast." -- Unknown Check out pictures of Vino at: http://photos.yahoo.com/badwilson click on the Vino album |

If a matt stays on the skin too long it actually will make a sore, which can easily get infected. They can look like burns or scrapes. Hope she's feeling better soon! -L. |

Theresa Stinky Pictures: http://community.webshots.com/album/125591586JWEFwh My Blog: http://www.humanitas.blogspot.com maybe the vet needs to look into an alternative warm up method, like those microwavable discs or something... |
