Lucky for us, someone had cancelled their 10:45 appointment. The clinic’s curbside service was excellent, by the way.
My assessment accurate, the conjunctivitis is mild and she suffered zero corneal damage. Whew!
In addition, following poor Tilly’s passing last September I kept her unexpired prescription feline eardrops. Intuition led me to dose Jezebel’s right ear last night, which was fortunate as the swelling ostensibly resulted as a byproduct from intense digging at her itchy ear. Jezzy’s doctor condoned administering tresaderm in both ears along with corticosteroid drops in her puffed eye.
On a comical note, I wrote a message from Jezebel’s imagined viewpoint regarding the whole thing. As well as providing additional information, I hoped to give beleaguered staffers a much needed giggle.
It read:
Hi, My name is Jezebel and I don't want to be here again, though it's been a while. I feel fine.
But Mom thinks my right eyelid looks puffy because my gray fur appears thin. I also have very itchy ears. Whatever...
I may be old but don't normally act like it. All my activities and habits are healthy. I use the litterbox, drink my water, even run around sometimes when I want attention.
My diet consists mainly of Sheba pate. Sorry, but I refuse to eat that Hill's prescription K/D kidney care, no matter what, despite enjoying it for a long time. Mom and Dad worry some, for sure. At least I have a healthy appetite!
Can I go home now?
(The post script mentions Tilly's eardrops)
Do you have any upcoming appointments? Are folks in your area adapting well to this new reality?

Great news on your baby. We have to watch them closely to make sure they are okay.
ReplyDeleteWe are doing fine with the new reality. My hair looks terrible, but I can get it cut next Thursday. Hubby too. We both had our annual physicals before all this so all that work was done. My dental cleaning is the last Monday in June. Now if I could just get my nails and toes done. Patience.
Have a fabulous weekend, Darla. Big hug. ♥
Good for you on being patient. :)
DeleteActually I have several apts behind me from last week. I had apt with my sleep doc, one with my eye doc and then few days later my chiro. Next chiro apt is three weeks away. Up until last week I was not doing doc apts but I was doing the chiro. Been amazing help. Sorry about your babe girl. I hope that she bounces back fast.
ReplyDeleteThank you. She's doing well and has fewer health issues than you, my poor dear. Take care.
DeleteGlad to hear you caught the issue early. Hope she feels better soon.
ReplyDeleteAs for me, I had an eye appointment during the lockdown. It got pushed until they opened back up, this past week.
Thank you. She doesn't seem bothered at all. :) I hope your appointment goes well.
DeleteI am glad Jezebel is OK. I like your note. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you. ~grin~ I appreciate the smiles you spread.
DeleteI hope she feels better very very soon.! That's a cute note.
ReplyDeleteThank you. I appreciate the kind words.
DeleteGlad your curb side appoint. went well.

DeleteJezebel's "letter" reads so nice. Glad to know she is recovering.
ReplyDelete~grin~
DeleteGlad things seem to be heading in the right direction for Jezebel. We've had several appointments that have been ok - though maybe not from the kitties' points of view !
ReplyDeleteThank you. And I know what you mean. She was very glad to be home. :)
