Ahhhh, that's Kerry, for the great update.
Hopefully Little Micky will not have a reoccurring problem.

Subject: RE: question re Mickey's bent ear
Thanks so much Kerry, Nina, Phaewryn, Sally and Susan---sorry if I missed
anyone---for diagnosing Mickey's condition and generally making me feel a whole
lot better on Sunday (and helping me make the decision NOT to go to emergency
clinic, where, apart from anything else, they are not particularly nice to
feral/semi-feral cats). I took Mickey to my own vet last night, he confirmed it
was hematoma (sp) and he drained the ear---ton of blood came out. If it recurs
he'll use the more elaborate (and expensive---that's what I love abt my vet; he
always tries the simpler and less expensive solution first) procedure that
involves both anesthetic and inserting a temporary drain device in his ear. The
trouble is Mickey's ear is still bent over -- perhaps not as much -- so with
him being semi-feral it's going to be tricky knowing if the problem returns.
But at least for now we're ok---thanks again SO much everyone!
Kerry & Mickey
