Gloria - May you heal quickly and hopefully
Clavamox is cheaper than the $136 stuff the doc gave me last time!

mythical stray cat
Speaking of cat bite - I got bitten! Just thought Id let
yiou know since we discussed that. Can't type too well. On
clavamox. Gloria
My personal doc doesn't care. However when
I worked for a doc and a kid came in with an animal bite fm his own dog,
doc was mandated to report and the AC fussed at the owner and the
doc. Ya never know! I stick with the stray gray or black
whatever, hey, it was at the rest area on the interstate out of this
county.

You need to watch those kind of stories tho.
The report is still written up, only now Animal Control has a copy of it
and the next few little black kitties (or cats matching the description of
the one you stated) that are caught within a 1/2 mile radius are marked as
a possible biters, and if unclaimed are held to be destroyed instead of
adopted out.
Its ok to tell a doctor that it is your own animal
that bit you. The only problem with outside agencies comes when
someone presses charges against you because of an animal bite or if the
person bitten was a minor or elderly person. Doctors and nurses have
pets too and most understand that a bite can occur from trying to
administer medication, clipping nails, or playing too roughly, and if its
your own animal that bit YOU, there isn't any stink made unless it happens
multible times. PLUS, this way, you don't have to worry about rabies
shots.

Love it. I've never been bitten, but now I'm fully prepared with
story if necessary. (Had no clue that the powers that be wd turn it into
an international incident and kitty into the ultimate victim). Thanks
again---I never stop learning with this great group.

It is absolutely always a stray black cat
that bites us, kitty came through and left, no idea where it went. The
only plausable story.
