A Warrior


I have noticed recently the condition of Abby's ears. You can see the the right ear has a divot in it. One morning I noticed blood on the flood and wondered where in the world that had come from,well now I think I know. I looked at the back of her ears, and both of them show missing fur which has never grown back. It hasn't always been like that. She is very combative with her siblings. Mainly when I am near any of them she will come after them with that green eyed monster look. She does NOT back down, and if one of them gets a swipe in, she will pursue whoever did it vigorously until she has gotten back the upper paw. She is relentless. I have seen them (especially Boo) bat her pow-pow-pow around the ears and head. Before I can even attempt to stop it, the blows land. It isn't because any of the others are aggressive, it's Abby, she's protecting her property (me). So my dear little teeny tiny warrior has battle scars all over her ears just like any battle scarred veteran.
