because she feels trapped by who she is and her situation and she believes if she was human she would have more opportunities to live the life she wants, so she plans to cut her ears and tail. She can't go through with it though, she tries to snip out her whole ear in one go but the scissors aren't sharp enough and only cut about an inch in and she bleeds everywhere and has to stop, and then her doctor convinces her not to go through with it anyway.
It's funny, I was watching http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z3qCJVEBjew just before I saw this pick. Maybe someone should show it to poor Sicily. Fast. :/
While the thought of blood and searing pain is bad enough, what really got me about this picture was the feeling she's ready to mutilate a central part of who she is, and aiming her grief and frustration at (that part of) herself instead of elsewhere.

Sicily really struggles with her feelings of self-worth and where to focus blame on her situations, which is a lot of what this picture is about. I'm really glad the general feeling got across so clear! Thanks for the comment c:
Luckily she does bug out at the last second and ends up only with a small tear.
