I have just come back from the vet with little Teddy. While Pearl's flu seems to be clearing nicely, Teddy has had yet another set back. His eyes are very irritated and swollen and he is not a happy camper. The vet had to give him some dye to use her black light and see any ulcers or scratches. He does have a slight ulceration on one eye which is a complication of the flu so in addition to his pill, he needs to have some cream in his eyes. The vet suggested a minimum of twice per day but if more can be given that would be good, so I will give him the cream every 4 hours and see how it goes. The poor darling has had a very big and not so nice day so he is cuddled up on my left hand in a darkened room having a big snooze.
On a lighter note, I met a lovely woman and her partner at the vet clinic today. Their names escape me, as they often do. They are fosterig a litter of 6, 3 week old kittens (3 boys and 3 girls) and they are suffering a spate of diarorrea as so many of them do. It can be really hard work with half a dozen in the litter (as storm and his siblings were!) but they have very loving and dedicated carers I am sure they will be strong little fluff balls when they come of age.
