Shotgun 1 #29 May 10, 2005 QuoteYou may start growing whiskers. Pretty cool, uh? Actually I think I now have a baby cat growing in my forehead, because my forehead looks pregnant. I have been injected with the seed of one of the lapcats of Satan. Here is a picture of my swollen head for the amusement of everyone else: (Yes, I look like crap in this pic, which pretty much matches how I feel.) http://crayfish.nu/keely/images/misc/swollenhead001.jpg At least I found out that I don't have to work again until Thursday... So maybe the swelling will go down by then (or maybe I'll be dead by then, who knows)... It's always fun to meet new clients with a massive lump and a bandaid on your head. Oh, and the doc didn't have to report anything to animal control. He just asked me what happened and if it was my cat and how old the cat was... But he seemed to agree that it was my fault instead of the cat's. Maybe I should just get "DUMBASS" tattooed on my head once this infection heals.

happythoughts 0 #36 May 10, 2005 Cats are of the devil. Now everyone can see that simple truth. My friend Debbie has a giant demonic figure living under the assumed name of cat. We joke that if you want to pet it, you have to sign a waiver. (...maybe it's not a joke) If can be really calm for 20 minutes, just sitting next to you quietly, and then... whack, he's got your leg. Everyone at Zhills knows to fear that cat. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mnealtx 0 #38 May 10, 2005 QuoteWell I gave up on waiting to hear from my regular doctor's office and went to the urgent care center instead (because I was starting to freak out about it). The guy who looked at it said that it was already infected, so he cleaned it up, gave me a tetanus shot (since I couldn't remember when I last had one) and he gave me an antibiotic prescription (which I am now waiting for). He also told me to follow up with my regular doctor at the end of the week to make sure it's ok. Grr, now I feel like crap and I am really stressed out... My next three weeks are going to be so busy, and I don't have time for this! Ok, I'll quit whining now... Hopefully it will be funny in a few weeks... Glad you went and got seen!!

Shotgun 1 #40 May 11, 2005 QuoteI'm still wondering how many channels she can pick up with that thing. *running away* I would say that I would spank you for that, but something tells me you might enjoy it... Wow, cat bites are a major pain in the ass (literally)! I just got home a little while ago from the ER. The swelling had gotten worse today, and when I called the urgent care center that I had been to yesterday and told them what was going on, they said I should go to the ER. So I went there and they gave me a huge dose of antibiotics into my left hip, and now I am walking with a limp... But now it looks like the swelling has gone down quite a bit. Funny, I've been obsessed with getting another Bengal kitty for the last few weeks... and now I'm not so sure I want another cat! (Just kidding, I'll probably end up getting one anyway.)

VanillaSkyGirl 6 #42 May 11, 2005 Oh Keely, I didn't read this thread until today! Geez...I hope that your forehead gets better really soon. It doesn't look very good, but thankfully you went to the ER. Good for you!

Kris 0 #44 May 11, 2005 Bengal....must have Bengal!!! I found a lead on two in TX at an animal rescue facility, and there's one coming up at a Petsmart adoption event here in my city on Sun...I'm going to go check that one out before driving to TX on Sun. Hopefully I get there first and the local Bengal has the temperment I'm looking for. Hope you heal up fast, Keeley...and, whenever you feel like giving out spankings....Sky, Muff Bro, Rodriguez Bro, and Bastion of Purity and Innocence!™ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was going to post in your "new cat" thread, but that was around the time I got bitten... so I wasn't much in the mood to praise any kind of cats. I have been trying to talk myself out of getting another Bengal since there are so many stray cats that need a home... But the two cats I have now are strays that I adopted, so at least I've done a small part to help the stray population... And I really want a Bengal... They're just a whole different animal than the normal cat. I still love my other cats of course, and I think they would like having another one around, especially one so playful (as Bengals are). Oh, and my swelling is almost completely gone now (woo hoo!)... Now Rich can stop calling me "Lumpy" ... The actual cut itself might leave a scar, but it's so small that I'm not too worried about it. (I can't believe how much swelling I had from that one tiny gash!) I'll never forget the image of Iggy's face coming at my head with his fangs out... It all happened so quick... He was VERY distressed about something, and was on his cat tree (which is about the level of my face)... I had had a couple of drinks, so my judgement was impaired... I went over and picked him up, and WHACK he bit me on the head, I dropped him and he ran off... I think there was a split second before the bite where I was thinking oops, bad idea...
