Never again

Will I be putting one of my cats on a leash.  I bought one today because one of my cats always wants to go outside.  So we bought a harness and figured if she didn't like it, oh well.  Got in on her, she didn't really like it but we went outside.  Our neighbor was outside smoking with one of his dogs not on his leash, and came up to liy, who FLIPPED.  Literally.  I could barely get her back inside.  She bit hard on my hand and scratched me.  HH is getting me some neosporin and my right hand hurts so bad!  Now we're concerned that she will get angry at Chloe (who was not outside)...ugh, I wish I could have forseen this.  Or brought her inside when I saw the dog. :(:(

Re: Never again

  • oh no becky....i hope you are okay and i promise i am not laughing at you!!!

    we tried to do the same thing before b/c trixie and dixie are always at the windows and back door but the minute HH got the leash on her she FREAKED out!!

    i hope kitty is okay!

  • She's doing okay...she was hiding under the bed for a while and then when I went upstairs, she was in the hallway, meowed at me and then jumped on top of the bookcase in the mancave...let me pet her and then i could hear her purring.  I just hope she doesn't lash out at Chloe (our puppy - sort of, she's 1.5), because she didn't do anything to Lily.

  • I'm so sorry that this happened to you today. I'm glad to hear that you are ok. Hopefully, if you decide to take her out again on a leash you won't have to worry about the next door neighbors dog.

  • Thanks Becca....but there will never be a "next time" LOL.  I'm hoping i don't have to go to urgent care tomorrow and get a stitch or two...it's still sort of oozing/bleeding.

     Funny thing is, our other cat...the "fraidy cat" seems to be more on edge than Lily.  He had nothing to do with the whole event.  Lily is currently sitting on the arm of the chair that our dog is sleeping on, so that's good.  Isaiha (fraidy cat) is sitting on the landing of the stairs, contemplating what he want's to do.

  • Becky-I hope you don't have to go to the urgent care place that is always really scary when it don't clot. I wonder why fraidy cat is more on edge .

  • Ouch!  My mom tried to put a leash on one of my cats once and she totally flipped out the second the leash was clipped on.

  • I would recommend you go to the doctor and get on antibiotics.  I work with animals and if you get a deep cat bite it can be very dangerous.  They get infected easily.  I hope you and your cat are OK today.  I can't beleive he didn't have his dog on a leash!  UGH!!!
