My Human’s Dumb Injury

March 26, 2022 By: Summer Samba22 Comments

Summer's human accidentally gives herself a dumb injury, and Summer has to decide whether it needs kitty healing energy.

My human does stupid things fairly often. Not more or less than your average human. But the latest thing she did sent her to urgent care. Right before my dinnertime!

She was trying to get something unstuck off a plate with a knife… and sliced into her finger! It required stitches. She is lucky she only had to go to urgent care and not the ER.

I checked out the bandages when she returned, to make sure everything was done properly.

I gave the care she received my paw of approval.

If you are wondering why I am giving my human a high five after she managed to injure herself so foolishly — it’s because she didn’t injure the hand that gives me treats! I’m glad it was the other hand.

    Glad your human didn’t hurt her treat-giving hand, LOL.
    Really glad the injury wasn’t too bad. Hope it heals quickly.

    OUCH!!! My Mom did something similar years ago before she and I joined forces – the cats she had back then were totally fascinated by her bandage and couldn’t stop sniffing it. She was glad to be able to get the bandage OFF and the stitches out!!

    Hugs, Teddy

    Good thing she had you there to inspect the work, Summer. My dad has been known a time or two to have issues with utility knives and whatnot. He even drilled a Phillips bit through the fleshy thumb-meat in his hand once. We are glad, however, that your human is okay.

    We’re glad the injury was not worse. Please tell your human to be careful!

    We were hoping to see your nurse’s uniform, Summer!

    Your poor human! That sounds like something I would do. I am VERY dangerous around knives.

    TW always worries she’ll do that with cat food cans. Glad your human is OK and glad no bloody pics were included. TW always makes them do finger sticks in that finger so she can give everyone “the finger.” MOL! Did she get to pick the color wrap? TW loves getting her pick.

    Awwww Summer I’m so sorry. I did something similar. I’m sure your human knows what a mandolin is. Not the instrument but the slicer. Was slicing zucchini and caught my thumb. Watched my blood of life streaming down the sink. Couldn’t stop the bleeding. Had to drive one-handed to ER. No fun for sure. Be a good kitty nurse and take care of her. Hope she heals fast

    She must have had some trouble driving to the care
    facility with one hand injured. At least she will have
    some healing help from you.

    Egads, Summer!
    While I’ve injured my fingers and hands many times, The Hubby is the KING of digit injuries!
    At least she can still give you your treats…that’s the impawtant thing!
