I came home today and like always, I check on my little girl Matilda. Today, she had an injury.
First off, I was planning on watching it but not interfering unless and until she has a problem with it. It's raw and I could apply liquid lidocaine followed by a triple-antibiotic.
If my plan is wrong, someone please let me know guys!!
Now, how did it happen? She had a habit of climbing the very thin concrete wall behind her pool. She always falls. Falling 8" or so, if she caught her shell on the edge of a brick or piece of marble, would it break off like that? Or was she attacked? There is a 1.5" gap between the wall and the top on the "opening side" of her home. I'm "hoping" it's self inflicted just so I don't have to worry about her being attacked.
I looked outside her home for a the piece of shell but didn't find it...Ill go look in her pool. My girls are tough but I don't ever like to see any of them get hurt. My daddy instincts kick in then and I want to protect them.
I went back out for a good look around and I couldn't find the missing piece and her pool is clear so I was able to check there as well. Dunno
