Jan,

I talked to the vet this morning. I asked him if it's okay to give him a little Benadryl. He said no, to hold off and let the Doxicyclin work. He told me that the Doxi would surely knock it out of him. I did give him a half of a Chlortrimeton for congestion. It helped. I checked Eli's ears out today and they seem better. No crusty stuff. Everytime I go into the room now he YOWLS like I'm killing him. The Doxi is a rather big pill to I just open his mouth and shove it in before he clamps down on my finger!!

I think I've isolated him from my other cats just in the nick of time. I'll die if this goes through my entire house!!!
