[Magdalen] Cat prayers

[Susan Hagen]

I haven't been letting the cats outside much because with the new cat,
I can't leave the cat door open.  Last evening I got home early enough
to let the boys out for a run.  Later Don Bosco came in with blood on
the white fur at his throat.  I washed it up and checked it but
couldn't see much damage.  I checked again this morning and was able
to find a small wound so got him straight to the vet before they
closed for the holiday.  It looks like he tangled with one of the
tough cats who have been roaming the neighborhood and got bitten.
He's already running a temp but Dr. Ann admitted him and got him
started on antibiotics and fluids so we hope to head off an abscess.
He'll stay over the weekend, poor boy.  I didn't hear any sounds of a
fight though I usually hear the yelling at each other through the
screen when one of the strangers is around.  I will just not be able
to let them out in the evening.  They will resent that very much.
