The penetration marks look like they could be teeth marks as well, from what, I don't know. It was probably another cat defending its territory. Anyhow, what you describe is basically what the vet is worried about. This vet is great. He has seen all of our animals for about 10 years now. If we have to do surgery. We are going to do it. We are prepared. Somebody dumped this beautiful little cat and we are going to do everything we can to ensure a quality life.

We do the same for other animals. About 10 years ago, before my wife and I had kids, on a run through our then neighborhood we noticed a goose visiting our local neighborhood pond. It had a horribly infected foot that was wrapped in fishing line. We captured it the next day and put in a dog carrier and then took it to a bird rescue here in the Dallas area.
