I'm so sorry, Sophia. I hope you heal quickly with no permanent damage and that you are able to figure out what caused him to snap. If something like that happened with one of my cats, it would break my heart, so my heart goes out to you now. {{{{{{{{{{{Sophia}}}}}}}}}}}}}

What is even happening?
Oh, Sophia. You poor thing. Did you see a doctor for yourself? I hope that whatever is going on with your poor cat can be treated, too.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

I hope your wounds heal soon, Sophia! Yikes. I'm sure this must be traumatic for you.

{{Sophia}} Poor you, poor kitty. I hope the wounds heal quickly and without side effects.
Ethereal! She's a fey, isn't she?
You've been reading her Noel Streatfield's "Ballet Shoes", haven't you?
That is one darling girl, there. I'm really amazed anyone let her go home with you, Aimee.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Sophia, that is so hard. There have been a few times over the past year where Ozzie has essentially flipped out and started attacking me, but nothing close to the degree you are describing, and so far, only when he is hurt or very scared. Even so, I've been wondering if I am going to be faced with a situation like yours. I know it will be hard as hell if I am.
I hope your wounds heal (and please do have them checked), and that there is someway to rehab Sunshine.

Because books.
Sophia, definitely get yourself checked out. Cat-inflicted wounds can be nasty. {{{Sophia}}}

I'm so sorry, Sophia. Please go to a doctor. Not only are cat bites prone to infection, but you also don't want to fool around with any major wounds on the hand.

{{Sophia}} I'm so sorry. How scary. Also, what they said about taking care of the wounds properly. Much healing ~ma.

And OUCH! Cashmere, it looks like you need to put in a call to animal control too.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
So sorry, Sophia. Our old cat, Datcherie, did that. He started attacking really viciously with no provocation. In his case it was a thyroid problem, but it sounds like it's something different with your guy. How difficult and painful for you.
