    Ouch! Cat scratches/bites don't have to be deep to be painful - I hope you feel better soon. What happened to the cat?

    Damn! I hope nothing gets infected. It sucks when you get hurt while doing something good. Your poor whole hand must sting so bad.

    she is being contained, they haven't had her long, maybe 3 mo and she's up to date on all but she really freaked out. if i had not grabbed her it would of been a minor that was there assisting me, she is also a volunteer. it was just a horrid accident, and i am in so much pain

    the really sucky thing is petco said "call the shelter they must have some ins so you can take to the er" well they don't cause as a volunteer we are not covered so this is costing me 100 bucks, plus meds, and i had a tetnus shot on the other arm which hurts like a bitch.

    i was bleeding like crazy and the grooming dept said that cats have very germy mouths and i needed to get checked. i got cleaned, placed on antibiotics, given the shot with a combo of a new drug for some reason and tomorrow i see my doc to get it cleaned again, besides how i had to do it. i still love animals, but i will get some good gloves.

    Ouch...sorry honey. If it makes you feel better..it shouldnt hurt anymore after a cpl days. But keep taking your antibiotics..thats VERY important. Cat scratch fever isnt just a Kiss song..its real.

    I used to constantly look like a stabbing victim when I worked at the hospital! My hands and arm were always all slashed up. I was either a sucker or just had less fear,lol...so "caution" cases(aka, aggressive animals) were always passed on to me.
    I actually have a knot of scar tissue on the right side of my neck from being throw into the metal table by a Dalmation that.....lets just say was NOT happy about being restrained and resisted.

    Keeping the cuts clean is also extremely important since cats often have a ton of bacteria under their claws from walking through the dirty litter box.

    I have to say I'm still jealous! I miss working with animals so much. I want to volunteer, but it would have to be a no kill shelter. I've put down and seen enough animals put down to last me a lifetime.Esp. if it was for no reason other then overpopulation.

    Yeah, the claws are bad, but the teeth can be even worse - I've gotten bites that go into finger and hand bones and they sting for a while

    Duh...my bad! Yeah bites can be agony. I was forced to go to the ER one day when a particularly crabby kitty sunk her fangs in. I waited 4 hours in the ER for the Dr to walk in look at my chart(his eyes never even left the chart to look AT me,no less examine the bite wound) and prescribe antibiotics(which were the same as we had in the hospital so I just took those...getting them from a human pharmacy with no insurance would have been insanely expensive). He never once even looked up at me. I was pissed...like why the hell couldnt I have called this in if he wasnt even going to look at me??

    Well back from ER again, now it mas my 2 yr old. First I hope everyone is well. Second this time it was Julian, and he fell and could not move his arm so I rushed him to the ER cause it was past 5 and the ped office was closed, it seemed his elbow and wrist were out of place and after waiting and all that jazz the Xray tech ended up putting the things back together because after we were done with the x rays he was fine. Wow what a week and it just started! We are home the kids are eating McDonald's yeah yeah, it was late and they had not had dinner and I am not cooking now and whatever. I am in pain, they took bandages off and checked under my pit cause cat scratch disease umm affects the lymph nodes so a sign of having the cat scratch disease is swollen lumps.

    Other than the antibiotic and some neosporin and not touching much with my right hand and keeping it elevated to prevent it from swelling not much can be done.

    I am so tired. I tried to call you Cam but had no service at the hospital so you guys could send good vibes cause I had not clue what was wrong with him, all I know he was hysterical and could not move his arm.

    I was going nuts! I couldn't call anyone and he was crying and they were like "we need to take xrays" and I was with my other kiddo and just a mess, plus with the hand, the other people were like "omg was that a cat?" I said "yes" one doc yelled "cats are evil" I said "no, how would you feel being taken out of a little box, placed in a cage and people poking their fingers and loud noises, big faces, bright lights and then someone grabs you and you have no clue wth is going on?' he said "well when you put it that way" ugh idiot.

    I';m going to start a fund fro volunteers, maybe a movement so they start a fund just in case of emergencies and if one gets hurt cause we give our time, energy, love and dedicate ourselves and if something happens nothing is done, suck man.

    Good luck. One doctor friend of mine would give anyone with deep cat bites or scratches an intravenous antibiotic IV. He said it was about as toxic/infectious an animal injury as you can get.

    Ow! My cat recently fell off a windowsill and landed on my boyfriend in the middle of the night and he had scratches like that all over his body, including his face! I hope your hand heals super fast
