Bastet got hurt
14 years ago
General
Bastet, my cat, came home tonight with a bloody ear and broken tail. I don't know what happened to her exactly, as an outdoor cat it could have been any number of things. I don't think there's anything else wrong, but it's hard to say.... cats are so good at hiding their pain. She's doing okay for now, so hopefully she won't need to go to the vet.
[UPDATE]
She's not hurt that bad, I was just freaking out. Bastet is under house arrest until her tail is better (she can't balance right now), and she's more upset about that than the injuries! Haha.

My Nana's cat got his tail caught in something a few months ago and hurt his tail pretty bad. Maybe yours had gotten caught on something and struggled to hard to get free?
I keep my kitties inside at all times cause I am paranoid about something happening to them.. Mine are all indoor kitties.
Good for you! Inside is the best way to keep kitties, it adds years to their life. Bastet was semi-feral before I got her, so unfortunately she doesn't do too well cooped up. I always get SO nervous when she's not around though.
I hope she'll be ok!
Yeah, it's cool how cats work in small spaces. To a certain extent the more kitties you add the less space they need, on account of having buddies to keep busy with. Also, your cats have the awesomest names.

Before anything else, give Bastet a hug and a kiss from Kiefer and Bagheera, her 'colleagues' in my home!
Bastet used to be a stray, so she doesn't like being kept in one place. I'm mostly worried she might be hit by a car... at least she comes home at night before all the big predators come out.
Be sure to give bagheera and kiefer a snuggle for me! :3
Both are strays, BTW, both found when they were 1 week old. Kiefer was so skinny you could count his ribs and Bagheera, well, I found him half-drowned after a terrible downpour in Barranquilla, my city. Now Bagheera has one year and Kiefer goes up the 1oth year, perhaps 15.
Predators? Owls or something like that? My biggest fear is that Bagheera gets hit by a car or victim of bad people (he is utterly black) so the leash is mandatory. A trick that has worked for me is having them in my bed when I see a video...they like movies! But my concern is that they LOVE Clint Eastwood's Harry Callahan!
I'll give them an extra hug and an extra kiss in your name. Same for Bastet! Just one tip: Never watch 'Daredevil' with her! She can get ideas...^-^
Mostly owls, but I live pretty close to a forest so we can get almost anything roaming around. A while back there was a bear problem on the other side of town.
