Pronouns guessed but assuming that someone who calls 911 over a cat scratch isn't normal.

Twenty.
Whole.
Minutes.

This woman was in terrible agony and had to get an Uber to bring her to a team of doctors and nurses to assist with her boo-boo. 😭

How do these people even function? I’ve had cuts that have definitely needed stitches (last night too, actually!) but ended up fine with gauze and bandages. Unless you’re gushing blood, 20 mins isn’t awful.

On the other hand, cat bites/ scratches can be particularly nasty bc of the bacteria but all you need is some disinfectant/ Neosporin

Na you need antibiotics from the doc if it’s bad. Cats are nasty

Yeah sorry, I mean Neosporin does contain a small amount of antibiotic which is a good just in case measure, but you’re right, they can get nasty fast. But not fast enough to warrant an ER trip, more like “keep an eye on it”

Nope. Just douse that shit in hydrogen peroxide, bandage up with the petro-jelly antibiotic, and you're good to go.

Lmao my mom wouldn't take us to a doctor unless we were on death's door. I really mean that.

At one point I broke my shoulder and my mom insisted it wasn't a big deal for 5 days until she realized I still couldn't move my arm, was afraid of CPS, and took me to a hospital.

At another point I slashed my face open on a steel garden hose mount that was face level for some reason and she taped a piece of plastic over it and said it was no big deal, until again, people started asking questions and she took me to get stitches.
