Stinky cat
Lurvely. The black cat got forgotten outside until after dark, and he came in with a face soaked in skunk spray, eyes squinched shut, moaning and with prodigious amounts of mucous streaming out of his face.
First attempt to take him to the bath was bare-handed, so clearly I took some damage. 2nd was with a towel.
He clearly was in a lot of distress because he actually CALMED DOWN after I hit him in the face with a spray of lukewarm water. He got the standard peroxide/baking soda soak with an emphasis on his face, though obviously I couldn't get to crazy on the peroxide in the face, so he still smells a bit up there.
The other cat is following him around at a safe distance with the biggest eyes ever, clearly thinking "holy shit dude, what the hell happened to you?"
