A quick update, the good news is the abcess burst this morning at about 9am we had an appointment at 11.45 am, i had been soaking it all day yesterday and did it this morning and then low and behold it burst, it was like a volcano exploding, blood and pus galore eek, was awful really, she did not like us squeezing it out, we tried to be gentle,there was a lot of growling , a few hisses and scratches, but she was and is an excellent patient, all day yesterday she turned on her side as if to say, fix it mum.

I cannot get over how good she was, and at the vets again a model patient, Gabe was so surprised at how good she is, he shaved the area and flushed the wound, she then had an antibiotic injection and some pain killers, equivalent to morphine, so he said she would be in la la land today,because she is on steriods, she has to have a different pain killer, and also we just have to make sure she is not resistant to the antibiotics as she had them just two weeks ago for her mouth,also being on the steroids you don't get an accurate temperature reading as it lowers it, so her temp was normal.

Hopefully all will heal well and she will be on the road to recovery,she is hiding in the corner of our room right now, had some food, and probably will sleep it off hopefully.

Thanks everyone for your concern, and support.

Aww, poor Ellie, I'm glad the thing finally burst so she can have some relief! Give her some kisses from me and Pinot for a quick recovery.
