Re: How's it going, FS?

I called into work at about 1 am because my psycho cat escaped around 7 last night, and the difference in her behavior indoors and out is like Jekyll and Hyde. The wife of her previous owner dropped her at the pound because she was "terrified" of her, and if they let her out a lot I can see why. The humane society said she was easily overstimulated but weren't sure how she'd handle the outdoors or other animals.

Inside she nips but otherwise loves being a lap cat and getting petted, doesn't mind being picked up, and is generally pretty mellow. She loves people, even people she's never met before.

Turns out outside makes her nuts and people and other animals are to be avoided and yowled at and/or attacked.

I'd caught her in some bushes at about 4am and then she bit my dominant hand hard enough that I dropped her. Then she came in on her own at around 7:30 am to eat, drink, and after 12 hours in the great outdoors, use her litter box.

She hadn't had a rabies booster in at least 4 years, right before I brought her home, so I brought her to the vet to get shots today.

She fought me going in to a new fabric carrier that my hens and roommate's cat (who hates carriers and the vet way more than mine) and kitten all seem to like better than the hard plastic ones, so now I have long scratches from my armpit to my shoulder.

My last tetanus shot was in 2015 so I think I'm okay? I'm tired and really don't want to go to the doctor. There's no red streaks or swelling around the bite 12 hours later, a little redness around the biggest puncture but I dumped iodine on it as soon as I got inside.

Whew, I'm glad you found her... I saw that comment thread this morning and was hoping it turned out okay. The scratches and biting suck, admittedly. :/

I'm glad you found her. Sorry she reverts to a wild animal outside though.

so glad to hear you got her back!!

your vaccines should be fine, but keep an eye on that bite. they can take a turn for the worse quickly.
At your own next wellness check you can ask your doc about boosters tho.

Glad you found her, anon.

Dunno if it helps but when I adopted my cat (he was a wild who I found almost dying under a car) he was a little shit: he would scratch furniture, poop behind the couch, destroy my blankets if I didn't let him outside, etc. It would make me furious and I almost gave him away until I started using mind games on him.

Instead of getting angry I'd pick him up and cuddle him (he used HATED it), started praising him when using the liter box and went eerily quiet whenever I had to pick up his poop. He slowly got the hint and now he's a cuddlebutt who sometimes misbehaves. Also he learned to poop and pee outside from my dog. Huh.

Also I dunno if your skin can handle it but I'd rather put alcohol in those wounds to kill any bacteria.
