Just an update on my sweet furbaby

Othello.

He seems to have an irritated eye today. I will keep an eye on it. If it gets worse or sekhmet forbid an upper respitory issue we will pass go,to the vet and lose 200 bucks...sigh. good thing I put away a little money for just this sort of thing.

He sat with me everytime my butt hit the couch so I spent considerable time pinned and holding my pee for an ungodly long time. Here he is tonight in my bedroom window as I get ready to go to bed.

He has been trying to get me in bed for 10 minutes he's tired and he says I have spent enough time fucking around online.
So goodnight DU.

Seems she has a bacterial infection in her eyes as pus was running out of them. I tried all of the OTC remedies to no avail.

She then began to cough and sneeze. She had a respiratory infection.

After three visits to the vet and several different types of eye drops and antibiotics, she is now cured I hope.

The whole thing was ~$350.00.

I'll tell you, these vets make a bundle these days.

I hope Othello is AOK soon Underground_Panther!

and the recent smokey air from the Canadian wildfires bothered him quite a bit. Hope Othello will be ok
