Abscess makes the heart grow fonder

The Cats have been costing us a lot of money. First the evil devil cat grew an enormous abscess over his eye. Obviously he had been fighting with some other Cat. So off to the vet, and 10 days of squirting Augmentin down his throat. Then we found that the big ol' three-leggedy cat had an abscess on his big ol' belly. Two bottles of Augmentin for him, 'cos he's such a "well-built" Cat. Barely had we finished that when Devil Cat turned up with yet another gash over his eye, just about to turn into another abscess. We have gotten very good at squirting Augmentin down his little gullet. But why do they make the veterinary product banana flavored? If it was chicken or tuna flavored, maybe the Cats wouldn't run from us when they see the bottle!

according to a google image search on the topic, cats love bananas:

see, I think that cat was just looking for the tuna hidden inside the banana skin.

I think cats should be indoors.

Yes, they should be inside -- it makes it so much easier for them to find each other and fight. All the really nasty fights have happened inside the house.
