Cooking post to follow.
I got up yesterday morning and my cat Angus was bleeding. He had a wound on his neck and on his left leg. I thought he had been hit by a car. DH and I took him to the vet and it turns out he had an extensive infection under the skin that had begun to drain. About a month ago I pulled a thorn from his neck and it only bled a little at the time and he seemed fine. It is possible that this is where this came from. He has an open wound that is packed and is on some powerful antibiotics. He may require another surgery to close the wound if any more tissue dies.

Here he is with his new neck gear.

Poor Angus. That must be really uncomfortable. I hope it heals up without further problems. At least he hasn't lost his appetite. That's a good sign.

I hope your kitty is feeling a lot better soon. Poor Angus! I love his name, though!

Yes, poor guy! But, he is very lucky to have such a good parent. I've had cats that developed terrible infections from wounds that didn't drain properly.

Lots of love
