MIDNIGHT AGAIN
OH MY, our sweet little cat has another abscess!!! We noticed her leg(same place as before) was swollen a few days ago and then today, Gill noticed it was draining. He just cried and cried because our little girl was sick again. We do not know what happened. Today we took her to our regular vet. And we are glad that we did, we really do like him. We got there, went in the exam room and Midnight was walking around the room exploring and then it started, stuff just came pouring out and it smelled foul. Again, through all this, she was active, eating and she didn't seem sick or did not even look like she felt bad. She did have a fever though. He took her back and just with a little anesthesia gas, cut her leg open, flushed out the abscess, got all the pus out. We are keeping her in the bathroom for a few days because he said it will continue to ooze some. We have to give her antibiotics for 10 days. She should be just fine. So today, Gill and I decided that she will be an indoor cat and we will try our best to keep her inside. It will be hard because she loves to be outside. But that is the problem, she likes to roam out of the yard and obviously is getting into something, no idea what.

What awesome pictures although that alligator looked a little too close for comfort:) Nice to know about that park. You guys always find the best places. Glad midnight is going to be OK.
