Kitty Bite

[hotpuppy]

Well don't be surprised if you wake up and the fucking thing has bitten your dick right off.

MtD

almost enough to make one go gay.  lol..  Cats will teach you more about managing people then any course. 

[Matty the Damned]

The thing that concerns me is that you said the cat doesn't have any shots.  It's important to watch the cat's behavior to make sure there isn't something more serious going on like Rabies.  God forbid.... but the cat did come from a tree and was presumably on it's own.  Rabies can be cured for people it's just a series of unpleasant shots.  DO NOT mention RABIES to your VET!  The test for rabies for animals is FATAL.  They do an autopsy on the brain to check for Rabies.

You're fucking kidding, right?

He shouldn't mention the rabies risk to a vet because they might kill the fucking cat?

Great Christ above.

   Willie, if I was you I would go to the ER and tell them I got bitten by a raccoon with white soap suds coming from it's mouth.  Tell the doctor you don't want any of that new stuff they use either.

Goddammit. Now we have a soapy raccoon in the ER.

How many more lives must this cat destroy before something is done?

I guess it was dogs I read had cleaner mouths than humans.  I still find that hard to believe.  I've always wondered about what "experts" tell us about dogs and cats.  Well, the first say we should live an almost normal lifespan now.  Then, some of them say to get rid of your cats and dogs or be careful around them.  My doc in the hospital told me to get rid of my dogs.  However, he was the one who had me on mono Sustiva therapy. 

You know I'd have that bite checked out if its looking worse.

Dogs eat cat shit, yet their mouths are cleaner than ours?  I doubt it.

He's the one trying to be the first person ever to keep a rabid cat.  Feeding time should get a little sketchy here in the next few days ....  Willie just hold the other arm out for the kitty to feed on, should make for a great bonding session.

Its not uncommon for southerners to keep rabid animals . Its the redneck version of a foam party .

[WillyWump]

Blah.

a nurse called me back this morning, after discussing the whole situation she wants me to come in to have it looked it and start a round antibiotics and POSSIBLY post exposure rabies shots (based on what the doctor thinks). She said there's been a few cases of rabies in cats over the past few years here in Bexar County(none in dogs) and since I have a few skunks hanging around the area where I found the kitty she thinks it might be prudent to go ahead and start the rabies treatment. I was having horrible visions of shots in the stomach, but she said they are given in the arm and butt now (thank God), 7 shots over 2 weeks.

So anyways, after I finish my coffee and donuts (and wipe all this foam from my mouth) I guess im gonna have to go downtown

Ah, so I was right: you're gonna die

ps: also I gave you the correct addy for Five Guys -- you need to go to 260 Basse Road East, nr Olmos Park or to 8603 Texas 151 right off I-410.  I recommend the first location as it's not right next to Cracker Barrel, plus it's next to Regal Alamo Quarry Stadium 16 so you can hop in and see The Twilight Saga: Eclipse or Toy Story 3...

[leatherman]

Twilight Saga: Eclipse

oh see that one! One niece already saw it and said it's to die for (shirtless Jacob!)
I'm going with the other niece to see this weekend.

go get the shot first. else when you start drooling,
someone might think it's the rabies and shoot you like ol' yellar

Awww well atleast the kitty will be sitting at home in your AC, sipping milk from a bowl, while you're out getting shots for 2 weeks.

hi will,

okay, glad to hear that you will be checking in with the doc & likely starting a round of antibiotics. imho, this is an appropriate course of action.

but, it does seem that your docs office is taking things a step too far by recommending actual rabies prophylaxis. chances are the kitten is fine if its absent of neurological signs. here's the deal, if you're in texas the kitten is essentially observed for 10 days...if he doesn't break with rabies during that time, you're in the clear. you've already had him a few days of the required 10 making this even easier math: http://www.ci.irving.tx.us/animal-services/bites-and-rabies.html

alternatively, he can be euthanized and his brain extracted & sent to the state lab...probably overkill (no pun intended). my vote, get your pussy examined by a competent vet (including feline leukemia & aids testing) for peace of mind, take your antibiotics, get him vaccinated and enjoy your new friend.

How dare some of you talk about killing the kitty....Lay one hand on that pussy and it won't be the only pussy to show up at your door!!!! With the exception of Matty who lives too far away to get my hands on. I'll just send a spell his way to take care of him....

I use to get bit and clawed by my demon kitty all the time. But nothing ever happened like what  happened to you. And my old ID doc use to try to get me to get rid of my cat because of the toxo thing. It's just a shame that I had to find him a new home in order to move to NY.

And keep the kitty. Is it a boy or girl? You know once you name it, it's yours....

[Jeff G]

I think he should name his pussy Pandora . Or if they have to test the cat for rabies Ichabod Crane would be a nice name .

[WillyWump]

<-------- Look over here! that me kitty!

ok, went to Docs, got another Tetanus and they put me on Doxy for 10 days. I avoided the Rabies shots for now...if me or the cat get sick in the next 9 days I have to go in and start Rabies treatment, I would also have to take the cat to the County where they will chop her head off and send it Austin for tests

-Will

Edited to add: yes....that's a cat scratch on my arm.

[max123]

awww...very cute for such a savage beast

Btw, you too can have impressive guns such as mine. Here's how...Each night when you change your Adroderm patch remove the old patch, cut it in half, spread the contents on each arm rubbing it in very good, then do 3 sets of 13 push ups. Voila! youll see results in no time.

Heh. What you don't realise is by making me your cat's namesake you have now made it one of my minions.

Well Matty it was an obvious choice, the similarities betwixt you and me kitty could not be ignored...He scratches, has a nasty bite, and it's a requirement to take antiobiotics when your engaged with him

[BubbaPat]

Hey Will,
Glad your keeping the kitty... still not sure if I would name it Matty but hey, its all up to you and of course kitty.

My kitty, Nikki the Bitch Goddess from Hell, was a stray until she found me.  I gave her food, A/C and a nice cushy bed to lay in.   She wound up be one of the many factors my ex and I broke up over.

She kept sleeping on his chest while he napped and covered his mouth and nose with her paw.  Interesting kitty.

Anyway, I know he'll bring you great love and yes... cats do learn how mind.  Its just a matter of if they believe you are deserving enough of their fealty.

Bubba hugs!!

[Hellraiser]

She was obviously trying to suffocate him, why wouldn't he just go to a room she wasn't in and close the door?

[numbersguy82]

Will,
I think you be just fine. I adopted a 2 week old stray in April (After I was POZ just before I knew) and let me tell you she used me as a scratching post and chew toy. She was pure evil (Thank God the ex got her in the divorce lol) and also the cutest thing ever wrapped up in one. I can't speak for your health, but I really think you are fine. Cat Scratch Fever can occur, but its an illness the cat would have to have in order to infect you. I can recommend you giving it a bath in Dawn. Its probably too young for chemicals, and you would want to kill anything like fleas or eggs. Also be careful of its droppings because most young cats develop worms. They should go away on its own, or with first vaccination, but in the mean time I would def be careful. BTW I am a huge cat lover and this post both appauled and cracked me up. Keep up the good work lol.

[WillyWump]

Thx Numbers,

Good to see a fellow cat-lover in this thread! My Lil Matty-Matt is calming down a bit, thank the lord, and I no longer have to approach him with shoulder length leather gloves, and he hasnt drawn blood from me in several weeks

He's got a "de-nutting" coming up shortly and he will be getting all his shots and worming stuff then.

The owner never came forward in spite of my blanketing the entire area with signs, so it looks like it's gonna be me and Matty from here on out.

Utter bullshit. I have two male cats. One was neutered when he was not quite one year old, and the other was neutered when he was well over six. Neither of them continued spraying on anything after their operations.
