Cat From Outer Space

“I come in peace. Take me to your leader.”

Fei Por has been wearing the cone collar since the day we took her back from the vet in Ipoh last Friday. She has an open sore that she kept licking, making it raw. It looked painful. The collar has effectively prevented her from doing that. The sore is healing day by day. She was also prescribed antihistamines, antibiotics and iodine solution. Although she refuses to take the tablets, Wuan has little problem making her swallow them.

We have to keep her in the house to prevent her from wandering around the neighbourhood for now. Hopefully the collar can be removed soon so that we can let her out. She looks uncomfortable and miserable cooped up inside. Cheeky is not helping either by playing rough with her every now and then although she is very patient with his antics.
