Hi! Mollie here. For the past two weeks the humans have been ignoring me. My ears have been itching and well….I’ve been cranky. I was hiding from everyone and wouldn’t let anyone touch me.
Because I am always a super wonderful cat, Kate got worried and got out goopy stuff leftover from Jake’s ear infection.
She tricked me and got the stuff in my ear. Within an hour I was purring again. Now I lie still when she puts the goop in and it feels so good. No more itchy. All better.
‘scuse me. Gotta go check on Morgan. That cat needs a lot of checking.
I’m so glad Mollie is feeling better! She’s such a beautiful cat!

Especially in this case. Mollie is not easy to medicate but she’s been letting me do the ear thing every day.

Poor cats, they just go crazy with itchy ears! Glad Mollie’s ears have her purring again instead of itching!

Within 24 hours there was a total change. She wouldn’t go downstairs anymore. I was afraid she was “aging.” The ears must have really bothered her because she’s acting like a kitten again. Morgan has to watch out or she’ll bop her. (Normally Morgan is the aggressor!)

Ha, I have used one dog’s painkillers for another dog. And also their hydrocortisone and ear washes.

When you’ve had pets a long time you can often treat without an expensive vet visit. I knew it wasn’t ear mites but when Jake was getting abscesses from scratching around his ear, it was a yeast infection so I thought it was worth a try. She’s a new cat. It’s a lot like after she had a bad tooth pulled (excepting the vet had to do that).

I hope you didn’t let on too soon that you were feeling better! Best to milk these things as long as possible.

Oh Mollie, so glad you’re feeling better and letting Kate take care of you. Obviously, if at any moment you decide you’ve had enough, well, you know what those claws are for. Wink wink. Would you be jealous if I asked you to also send my love to Morgan and Hazel? No? Good girl.

She’s much better. She was so cranky for about 2 weeks. Couldn’t get near her.

I’ll never forget the time we went away for a few days, and my friend was cat-sitting. One of our cats needed medication, and she was having a difficult time getting the cat to take it. So she had a brainstorm. She figured she’d put it on the cat’s paw and he would just lick it off – thereby ingesting it. However, the cat did not lick it off. He shook his paw violently instead. The medication was bright pink. My friend ended up scrubbing our kitchen walls.

Happened to me to but it wasn’t bright pink. It was greasy. Cats are wily critters. Some of the goop ended up on the bedspread. When I’m done with the med, I’ll wash it.
