On Monday morning, as usual, I saw all the cats. Ingrid was out and about doing her thing. A bit later, I was putting some clothes away in the attic bedroom. Ingrid often sleeps up there on a cotton comforter. I noticed blood stains on it - more than a few specks. I waited until she came back and checked her over, thinking she might have caught a claw or something. I found what looked like a 1" piece of raw flesh hanging from her bum, dripping blood. I called the vet. They were fully booked, but said they would squeeze her in at end of surgery. The vet said it was a nasty polyp and she had stripped it with all the licking. He said it would continue bleeding and she would continue licking until it was removed. The kept her there and operated under GA that day, with internal sutures. I collected her at 4.30. The nurse said to keep her in for 5 days (we negotiated down to 2 or 3
