Has this cat ever bitten another animal YesWhat were the circumstances /My other cat but never any punctures or infections.Just clumps of hair found around my house and scratches on my other catHas this cat ever bit a person? YEs.Did the bitebreak skin and bleed? YesWhat date did the bite occur?9/6/2023What location did the bite occur in? (Ex., park, home, car) KnuckleWhat was the pet doing before the bite? (Ex. playing with toy, eating, drinking) / ¿Qué hacÃa lamascota antes de la mordedura? (Ej. jugar con juguetes, comer, beber)He ate dog medication so I was getting him in the carrier to take him to the vet and i startled him, scruffinghim and tried to force him in. He resisted, bit mePlease select any behaviors observed before the bite: Scared meowingWere any resources involved: Nothing - Who did the pet bite? Woman Age of the person bit? He bit me, his owner who he loved. 36 years oldHad the injured party interacted with this animal before? If yes, please explain::Yes he loved me, I was his owner. I scared him and thatâs why he bitPlease describe the injury in detail (Ex., location of the injury, number of bites/punctures,lacerations, bruising): Puncture that eventually needed surgery on my knuckle to drain the infection a month later. It didnâtgetinfected right away because I scrubbed it for 15 mins but a deep puncture pushed bacteria way down into my joint and it became septicWhere are the litterboxes located? He goes outside mostly but would use it in the winter. It was in my home office in a cornerPlease describe what you think the best home for this cat would be: A patient, cat loving and cat understanding woman with no other pets. I truly could see him warming up toa lady and enjoying life. Or a working barn cat scenario because he has always been indoor/outdoor so itmight be really hard to keep him in. With that I worry he will just run away and be a stray again.Is there anything else you would like to tell us? I do not want him back but I hope he finds a good home. I do not want to know the outcome. Thank you for taking care of him.
