Paizly's spay incision....

[Taz_Zoee]

Ok, that was HORRIBLE!! She hates me now! After I finally got it down her throat I sat and cried my eyes out.
I will try another suggested way tomorrow morning, or tonight if I don't have help.
Ugh, this is going to be a LONG week. My poor baby girl.

Aw, try not to let it get you upset any more. I know it's easy to say but you're really not hurting her. Some of my cats, Yodie for one, are real drama queens and they carry on something fierce. Maybe you can ask your vet for the med in liquid form; that way you can just squirt it down her throat. Some meds are really bitter tasting; I think that's the case w/one of Puddy's meds because usually I have no problem pilling her but w/this one it's a real scene. I'm sorry you're upset but she'll be fine. I think you're probably in worse shape than she is right now.

Thanks Mary. I know I'm not hurting her, but in her struggles I accidentally hit her incision. And it is in liquid form. Once I got it in her mouth I just squirted real quick. I think I choked her with it. I just hope I got enough in her. It also just made me sad that she was scared if I tried to pet her after, and she didn't purr.
Oh, and I only got one puncture wound out of the deal. *Note to self: wear long THICK pants while giving kitty meds*

I'll probably get the routine down purrfectly on her last dosage.

Oh goodness, I missed that it was in liquid form. Poor girl, some kitties just hate taking their meds, period. We'll keep the prayers going up that she'll be a good girl for Mom.

Cindy, dont feel bad. By time you get home, she will have forgotten the whole ordeal, until the next one... Sorry that probably made it worse!

She will never like it, and in a day or two, she will learn the routine and hide... Mine always do.

BUT dont worry and get yourself all upset, I PROMISE she will get over it, as soon as all these meds are gone. *HUGS* to Meowmie, who is most likely WAY more upset than Paizly! Dont let her make you a softie, she will be ok!

Since you have not got an answer yet, try cleaning twice a day with peroxide. I would not add anything else other than peroxide! I would not want to smother it in cream unless the vet says. I think the infection and wound need to breathe

[Taz_Zoee]

Thanks Mary, again.

And thank you Katie for the cleaning suggestion. And yeah, I know she's going to start hiding from me when I go in to see her in the morning. That also makes me sad. But I know she'll get over it......eventually. And this is all for her own good!!!

is oxigenated water same as peroxide?....

for human use I´ve heard/seen teh using of oxigenated water to disinfect wounds/scratches, etc.... not sure on animals... but it´s just water with a bit more oxigen h2o2 instead of h2o

Awwww, I'm so sorry! ((((HUGS))))) It's so awful to feel like we are making our kids feel worse but we have to remember that we are helping feel better in the end!

Poor widdle Paizley will be fine, Mommy!!!
