It’s a bedbug’s world now. We’re just sleeping in it.

      Little buddy was suffering. Nobody wants to see that and I had nothing else going on that night anyway. On the other hand, if it turns out he’s an asshole, then I feel comfortable saying he’s not my problem.

        Just as a quick note. Cats can have rabies. You might want to go and tell your doctor that you’ve received a cat bite from an unknown cat and get a rabies shot because once you start showing symptoms you’re already dead.

          If a cat bite breaks the skin you should see a doctor regardless. Cat bites are no joke, and can give you a serious infection.

            Indoor cat bit and scratches my mom’s leg because its tail got caught.

            Cue a 4 month ordeal of constant wound care visits and packing infected, necrotic tissue…

            Just go get antibiotics immediately. Especially if they’re remotely deep.

          Hm, yeah, this is a good point. This was at least 10 years ago so I think I’m probably safe but I agree with the principle in general.

        Just because the person talking about rabies wasn’t clear, it can live in your system for years without symptoms

        Again, as soon as you have symptoms you’re already dead

          Wat

          There are a lot of people who’ve interacted with cats they don’t know. Between the cat, animal control, the hotel, and the local health department, I like how you’ve chosen me as the one in this situation that clearly did something wrong lol.
