Big black cat vs. 3 yr. old Amel= bad news
Apparently my new 3 yr. old Amel escaped his new vivarium last night and had a run in with my 13 lb. favorite cat. The snake (Zeppelin) actually fared pretty well. He has a scratch about an inch or so long and is missing one other scale.
I found him a few feet away, underneath the 55 gallon, wedged inside of an aquarium ornament. I eventually got him out. He seems to be okay, besides the scratch, of course.
I put antibiotic ointment on him, and his is now soaking in his water dish with a blanket over the tank. I thought a little peace might be in order.
Is there anything else I need to do, besides changing the aspen to newspaper?
Do you all think he'll be okay, but just missing scales?
The wound doesn't look deep; basically just missing scales.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!
Thanks in advance,
