Yesterday our 2 obvious kitties with mouth infections had to go for their 2 week check up after their 10 days of meds. They still have the infection, but it's much better. The vet sent us home with another 10 days of Baytril for them, poor babies. Last night they really put up a fight taking the meds and I felt so bad for them. Today I have to separate them from the pack when R brings home more cat litter. I decided we needed to clear out one of the bedrooms and let them have it instead of them being isolated in cages for 2 weeks. Either way, they're not going to like being separated from all of us. I can see it now, I'll be taking one of our cots and setting it up in the room to sleep with them some nights and if not me then R. Those kitties really have us trained as they tug at our heartstrings. And in case I never said what the cats were diagnosed with after the culture came back, it was Pasteurella Multocida and Gram Negative Organism. It was the reason my finger got infected and I wound up with Cat Scratch Fever.
