A couple of days ago she went out and got into a confrontation with a big orange tom. Today she crept into the neighbours yard and got chased by two dogs!!! I thought they were going to kill her... they had her cornered and when she tried to climb over the wall one grabbed her by the leg.. I had to climb over and get her because she just froze stiff.. I had to pry her off my shirt man.. she's been lying in the same spot the whole afternoon.. i hope nothing's wrong with her

I would give her bach flowers. I think rescue would the best here.
She's traumatized because of the experiences she made.
If I were you I would keep her inside and show her that she's safe there.
I may take a couple of days for her to feel save again.

Whoa. That is really traumatic, poor kitty. Perhaps you should rethink letting your cat outside, your environment outside sounds awful dangerous.

I hope nothing's wrong with her too, but please check her leg for injuries. Remember that these close up fast, but could fester inside, and may result in an abscess.

Indeed, we've had many discussions about the dangers of letting cats outside. It's a jungle out there! Her life is bound to be stressful--and probably short--if she keeps getting into these scrapes. Please, keep her inside, or build a cat-safe enclosure for her so she can enjoy the sunshine and fresh air without the hazards!

Cheers,
Dr. Jean

Well... she's up and running today altho she seems a little subdued.. no visible injuries except a little scratch on the muzzle.. She's not supposed to go out in the first place. I try to keep the doors and windows closed but somehow someone always opens a window(because its so blazingly hot in the tropics) and she slips out.
