My sister found this someplace. Got her from a free kittens box when I was in 2nd grade. She made it to 13, which is pretty good for an outdoor cat I think. She was 100% predator. I couldn’t begin to count how many dead rodents, rabbits and birds she left by my back door over the years.Comment

Really good price right now on dbl wide heated outdoor kitty house. Will probably increase or go out of stock soon (I know... made the mistake of waiting too long in years past).

A rare maned gargoyle (felis catus malus) admiring its reflection this morning:
He's been pretty sedentary lately and really lethargic since Sat. We're having all the floors redone in the house and all the furniture is outside so I figured he's just annoyed at the disruption. Yesterday night I found him in his bed tucked under a house plant exactly where I had left him in the morning and figured something had to wrong. I dragged his ass out of there for a thorough inspection and sure enough he had an abscess the size of my hand on his flank. I know the drill by now, it's his 4th in as many months and the vet told me to just deal with it myself, so I put him Ugly in the sink, cleaned the area, and lanced the thing.
I wasn't prepared for the level of carnage that ensued. This is by far the biggest abscess he's had, I must have pushed about 25cc of pus out of it. I had to massage his entire side from shoulder to butt to get all the shit to come out and was at it for about 15 minutes. He got really combative by the end and actually swung at me a bunch while I was trying not to let the smell get to me and puke on him. I got him cleaned up, gave him some antibiotics, and returned him to his bed where he promptly passed out. Did a couple more rounds of warm compresses and wound cleaning last night and when I went to bed I could hear his usual funny snoring sounds.
This morning he was back to his normal self, rambling and prancing around the house demanding attention (thus the sink pictures). His wound is still draining but it's not bothering him and it looks like the skin will be fine. The fur is gone though, good thing he's not entering any beauty contests..."Your wife being mad is temporary, but pow turns do not get unmade" - mallwalker the wiseComment

I dragged his ass out of there for a thorough inspection and sure enough he had an abscess the size of my hand on his flank. He's usually very tolerant but he started hissing immediately when I poked at it. I know the drill by now, it's his 4th in as many months and the vet told me to just deal with it myself, so I put a rather sluggish Ugly in the sink, cleaned the area, and lanced the thing.

He and I are developing the same balding spot on top of our melons. It's not 100% yet but it's heading that way. Once he achieves a monk-like hairdo on top I think he'll have a better chance of winning contests."Your wife being mad is temporary, but pow turns do not get unmade" - mallwalker the wiseComment
