Vet Smackdown! Dr. Walker 1, Meep 0

[binaryalchemist]

Meepers is back from the vet and I have the scars to prove it :grins::
Diagnosis: Deep bacterial infection in both ears compounded by ear mites
Treatment: antibiotic shot, single-dose treatment for the mites plus drops twice a day for a (fun-filled) week
Also got her rabies and feluke vaccines
I have a very pissed off kitty in the bathroom with food and water--she wasn't eating because she was so dizzy from the inner ear infections that jumping up to get her dinner was impossible. I've got her extra food and water in my office on ground level.
I will say that Dr. W was impressed with the way I handled my girl--"How long since you were a vet tech? Well, you sure haven't lost your touch!" I only got scratched hauling her out from under the recliner.
Here's our patient...looking almost angelic... Cat...you're gonna give your mama grey hairs one day....

She's so cute! :)

Isn't she? I woke up and found her outside my door and took her upstairs, loved on her, gave her treats--and then squeezed that awful medicine in her ears. She grumbled and then I cuddled her some more. Then she went downstairs to my roomie's room and sat outside the door--she's appealing to A Higher Court. Roomie just came out, saw Meepers sitting their and said, "Tough luck, sister--you sold your soul for a jar of treats. I'm not going to bail you out. You're not MY cat anymore! Bwaahaahaa!"
