Paddy O'Malley has tangled with some other critter...again. I found a puncture wound on his lower jaw yesterday. Don't worry; these photos are not gruesome!
My bet, is that it's raccoons. They wash their hands in The 'O' Cats's water bowl sometimes, leaving muddy water. We pick up any food or used food bowls before calling it a night, just to keep any raccoon, groundhog, opossum, or marauding cat away. But The PO'M is large and in charge, and doesn't take kindly to interlopers on his turf, and of course, he must protect Sweetie.
You all know I'll haul him into the vet's office, if his wound becomes icky. Last year's abscess in his neck healed well, with the use of the Vetericyn spray, so I am sure we'll all be fine.
