We had to get the little feral into a trap so we could take him to be neutered. DH grabbed him and the little
went psycho and managed to spin around and attack DH's hands - his hands are now covered in bite and scratch marks.
We finally got him, and he's in being neutered today.
We put antiseptic straight onto DHs hands, but I don't know if he should go to the doctor today for antibiotics as well. I have a bottle of amoxycillin that I got 2 weeks ago that I don't need, I'm half tempted to just make him take those - that's just what he'd be prescribed anyway. I'm more worried than he is.
Problem is that if he goes to the doctors, they will file a bite report and animal services will want to quarantine the kitten for 10 days (I can't handle this kitten for another 10 days), or maybe euthanise him since he hasn't had his rabies shot.
Maybe we'll go to the doctors after we've released the kitten...
