Mike and his cat bite.


Mike went back to work today, since he was bitten by Urchin a week past Tuesday. He did have quite a bad infection, that had tracked up him arm from his wrist upto his bicep. He has however milked this as much as he could- he is looking well rested, because he didn't get up until 8.30 and has been ' taking things gently' while I've been up at 6 and doing all the bale shoving, animal feed lifting ( 20kg bags) and sneezing because I've had to handle the hay.
To say I have aged 10 years is an understatement- mind you its him that has to look at me so I guess he is suffering after all.

Ouch, poor Mike. Eva bit G last year and it also tracked right up his arm, he ended up at A&E. Have to say though, he didnt milk it as much as your Mike is
I think my biggest sympathies lie with you Louise, kick Mikes ass and tell him to get on with it, after all that's what us women do.

Re: Mike and his cat bite.


I was wondering whether Mike's bite was going down! I'm afraid that I don't sympathise with him as much as I do with you farthing!!! Glad he didn't have to go on an AV though.

Sounds as if you need a holiday now.

Re: Mike and his cat bite.


I so want to give him a thump , the worst bit is that everybody thinks I am being unreasonable and horrible to him- he only managed to wash the dishes at the weekend, and couldn't do the guinea pigs water because he couldn't open the bottles with one hand- when I had my carpal tunnel op I put the bottles between my knees and only needed one hand to open them!

Thump him!!! G managed to go to work with his cat bite, G also had cat scratch fever a while ago after a cat bite. Think that was the only time he was "genuinely" ill.
