Hi there
I have a question. Mandy is still under antibiotic treatment for her snuffles. When we finished the Azitrmicyn, a little bit of eye gunk returned, and a few sneezes, so we started Enrofloxacin, to finish off the ones that resisted the other antibiotic.
A few days ago, she started shaking her head, lots, and it was lot worse today. I decided to take a peek inside her ears, and there seems to be either ear wax, or dried up pus from the previous infection. While its a clear tone of pale yellow (suggesting its pus), its totally dry (so I guess its not "new" pus, just old one), and very visible, as its right where the ear connects with the head.
I managed to get a little piece out with a q-tip and a powerful led light, but she moves her head around too much (must tickle her as all hells) so I was unable to take out the rest.
And while I will be calling my vet on Monday, I *REALLY* *REALLY* don't want to take her, cause the stress from the travel makes her jump into stasis, without fail, and she is just recovering from the stasis of the last travel to the vet.
Anyone here with experience in ear cleaning?
Cheers!
