Problems - two dogs attacked my cat last night, I spent several hours at the emergency vets, missed running this morning, had to run tonight (I HATE running at night!) Then the animal control officer came to take my report right after I ran, and I ended up standing around in the cold outside air for an hour, and now my muscles have froze up and are all knotty! I was also starving, so finally got a glass of milk & a pb and honey sandwich. I'm hoping my cat will be okay; she got hammered really bad by the dogs, vet thought she had spinal injuries because she didn't move at all, but it must have been shock because she finally started moving, x-rays show no broken bones, but bruising around the lungs (which could cause bleeding and be a bad prognosis indeed), and also severe tissue damage along her inner thigh and hip region (could cause blood clots to break loose), and lots of other bruising and scraped foot pads, etc. My son heard it happening, ran outside, and tried to break it up, but he was barefoot and the dogs started snarling and growling at him, then a bike rider stopped and chased the dogs off right when they had picked my cat up with their mouths and were playing tug a war with her. I am so thankful for that bike rider, if the attack had gone on for just a few more seconds I truly think my cat would not still be alive. Agh! Kind of a crappy run, I warmed up, then did 4 reps (1/4 miles at 6.5 mph), then finished the run with a mix of 5 to 6 mph. Feel truly spent right now. Gotta go try to give my cat some pain/anti-inflamatory medicine, then I should probably try to take a warm bath to try and loosen up my muscles. AGH!
