12 days ago (4/30/09) our cat Michaelangelo, named for the Ninja Turtle (NOT the artist!), lovingly referred to as "Mikey" was roaming the neighborhood as usual...a neighbor knelt to pet him which he LOVES! Then when he stood to leave Mikey bit him in the calf! This man calls me at work to inform me of the incident that had taken place! I gave my sincerest appologies...he said it was ok, that he may have even stepped on Mikey's tail!
ANYWAY, fast forward to Friday (5/8/09), Ash calls me to say that Animal Control has come to the house to put Mikey on House Arrest until today (5/12/09) to guarantee that he infact does NOT have rabies...He informed Ash that rabies will kill an animal within 10 days & he would be our insurance policy that would prove he is healthy & we would not have to pay $20,000.00 for rabies treatments for the "victim"!
As of 7:45am this morning, Mikey is still living! NOT the happiest cat in the world, but ALIVE!
This is his LAST day of incarceration & he is ready to get out of the house!
I haven't told him this but I am planning to take him to get fixed in the next week or two! That will really make his day!
