I got scratched. It's not super bad but I just am gonna keep an eye on it just in case it gets infected.
Then there was the trio of kittens and I couldn’t find one of them to put back in their cage, like I had two of them but couldn’t find the third. It was hiding inside the cabinet. I literally panicked and thought I had somehow lost one of them.
I have been dissociating ever since due to stress. I'm worried I didn't do a good enough job cleaning their cages and whatnot because of the first cat being such a nightmare to deal with it kind of threw me off and I panicked and dissociated. She really is sweet she was just scared I think, she's new.

Oh, blue bird don’t worry about it, those things happen. It’s kind of routine when you work with cats. Where I volunteered we had an escape artist who spent a great deal of time in the rafters. Once it was over a week before we caught her. She moved on to the regular cat enclosure and I didn’t hear any more about her. The minus for us is that she was supposed to be getting medication daily. She objected to that.
