So...i come home from work and find my cat laying on the bottom of my stairs. He got out again. This time though...a neighbour who recognized him decided to keep him close to home. They tied him to my railing with a dog leash...and a shoestring around his neck. They even left some water for him.
The problem is that cats don't like being leashed....so he struggled...a lot!
To the point where he'd wrapped the leash around the railing until all he has left was about 1/2" of cord and what was wrapped around his neck. Blood...and lots of it, while I was trying desperatly to untie him. Blood in his mouth and on his paws, blood on me. I had to run into the house to get a knife and cut him loose. Threw the knife drawer to the floor getting the knife. Cut him loose just in time...he was freaking out!
I got two 2" long scratches on my arm for my troubles. He seems fine...don't know how he got the blood in his mouth, but he's eating and drinking. He's walking abouts...
All this before I have to leave for three days. I hope that he'll be fine...my father's going to feed the cats and fish while we're gone. Wish us luck!
