Bruiser the Brawler
Bruiser just had his first big cat fight. I wouldn't say he won but he
wasn't backing off. Normally any real violence just confuses him. I heard two cats fighting out front. Not screaming but fighting. I ran out there pretty sure it wasn't Maya. Maya's fights tend to be quick things and this was going on too long. Once I got to the front door all I could see was cats going at it back and forth in the dark under and among the bushes making multiple attacks against each other. I couldn't even be sure it was Bruiser but they were both too big to be Maya. By the time I got to them Bruiser was on the bottom but wasn't giving up. I ran the cat off over the wall. It was the same tom Maya beat up twice in the last few weeks. I know he weighs more than Bruiser but they are about the same length and height. Bruiser wouldn't come in either, he jumped back up on the wall looking for the other cat. He seemed OK but I'll have to check him later under some good light... Bruiser just came in to get some food and I checked him and aside from having a couple of pounds of plant debris in his fur he seems unmarked. I guess all that fur makes pretty good armor. He's curled up napping now so I guess he had enough excitement for awhile. As cat fights go I think it was on the level of school kids slugging it out and not really knowing what they are doing. Which is why it went on for so long with so little damage done. |

Just a word from experience with Frank, sometimes they get a small puncture wound from bites that you can't see. They're pretty prone to abscesses, so you might keep an eye on him the next week. I didn't even know Frank had an abscess once till he started smelling weird. It was hidden in all that fur. There's nothing in the world that sounds like two cats fighting. It's absolutely otherworldly. Sherry |
