Pete got into one his Mr Hyde moods the other night and bit me on the arm. In the morning, one of the punctures had started to swell. So, I went to the urgent care to get some antibiotics.

Apparently there's a county regulation that any doctor treating an animal bite has to report it to the local animal control department. So, last night I got a call from an animal control officer who took a statement about the incident and asked for Pete's vaccination records, etc.. He also said that Pete has to be quarantined for ten days - but, he can do that at home. Which is no different from any other 10 days, because Pete isn't allowed outside. And, they're going to send an animal control officer around to check to make sure that he's in quarantine (aka: in the house) twice during those ten days.

Our little guy now has a permanent record.
