This little guy is beat up

for all pics click on image for larger version

These pictures were taken the last time Elliot was on house arrest
You can't really see the scrapes and bite marks
We don't know for sure but we think he approaches other cats to be their friend
And they beat the snot out of him
Sometimes literally

So he is at home again
We are making him sleep off some new wounds
Locked in the house
He hates it
We think it is for his own good

He just wants to play and be outside
Is this what being a parent will be like?
Making your kids do "what's good for them"
Even if they think otherwise?
It is only because we love the little guy

I mean, who wouldn't love him?
