Pretty much from day one Muddy has been a fighter (though never with my
other cats) and over the course of 14 years has worn his scars like
battle honors. His latest run in resulted in a trip to vet to have a
deep abscess on the back of his head treated, resulting in 3-days in the
slammer while they made sure the it drained properly ($500 bill, thank
you Muddy). Anyway, he's home now, and apart from looking like somebody
shaved his head with a lawnmower he's in fine fettle, though annoyed
because he's confined to quarters for a week, with loss of privileges :-)
