Mally is supposed to have three more days on the drops, but I'm going to stop giving with last night's dose being her last. She's been on them for 11 days and her ears have cleared up nicely. The dosage recommendation for these drops is 7 consecutive days with a warning that continuing beyond the 7 days can delay wound healing. I've noticed in the past two days that the test sites on her ears are taking longer to heal and look bruised. If, for some reason, she develops a problem in her ears again, I'm going to ask the vet if there is an alternative treatment that doesn't contain steroids.
WCR - Mally was awake and alert this morning when one of my civvies got me up before the alarm. She was not circling the food bowls like the other cats were, but she ate well when I put breakfast down. She's feisty this morning too. I have my sister' dog for the weekend and the poor thing walked by Mally and got a good smack for no reason. My dogs know better than to get too close because Mally is known for doling out smacks whenever the mood strikes her. :lol: With a good breakfast in her belly, she's laying down for a nice snooze.
Libby and Lucy said:the high numbers just look like a bounce off the blue (these bounces can last up to 72 hours). Sienne is probably right too that the ear drops could be causing a bump at night, or just elevating the numbers overall. How much longer will Mally be on those drops?
