Yodie - you still don't look very happy.

It's okay girl - things are almost back to normal.

Now no scratching at that ear - ya' hear???

Oh, goodness, if looks could kill, both you and the camera would be a little pile of dust by now!

Kisses to Yodie!

I'm so glad she got the collar off. Hermes is the same way he has to clean himself after the cone comes off.

Yeah, she's got Puddy beat in the dirty looks dept. As for not scratching at the ear, too late. She already has that spot above her eye rubbed raw again. As much as I hate to do it, if I see her clawing at the ear, the collar goes back on. Maybe she'll get the connection then. Right now she's still in the basement checking things out. It's as though she's in a new house saying "Hmm, this looks familiar." LOL

The first picture without the collar she looks like she's thinking - ok, now what are you going to do to me??

It must be such a relief without that darn collar. But Miss Yodie, just remember, if you bother your ear or eye it's going to go right back on!!

She probably hasn't been able to give herself an all-over grooming for a long time and is catching up!

Is there some numbing salve you could put above her eye so she can't feel it? Then maybe she would leave it alone. Better than the collar!

Welcome back, Yodie Yodie!

Welcome back, Yodie Yodie!

Yep, she's still grooming herself. I just gave her a light brushing and I can tell it felt good. Dr. Lee said that I could put some Otomax directly on the spot that she rubbed raw. I had been doing that all along and it cleared up but it only took a few minutes of her being able to reach it and get it raw again, the little brat.

Can you just imagine how good it must feel to her to have the collar off?

Oh, please, just don't scratch yourself raw again!

Mary, what a wonderful job you are doing for her.

**Prairie Purrs** · 01-12-2010, 12:21 PM

Please be a good girl, Yodie, so you can keep that cone off. You and your mom deserve a break!

**Catty1** · 01-12-2010, 12:47 PM

Does Otomax have a local anesthetic in it? If it does, you think she'd leave it alone! Silly Yodie! Leave that spot alone!

**catmandu** · 01-12-2010, 04:14 PM

I think that theres a compulsion to scratch an old wound, even when you know that you should leave it well alone!!!

Please Yodie, let it heal!!!!

**Laura's Babies** · 01-12-2010, 04:20 PM

CONGRATULATIONS GIRL! You are FREE of that ole thing! Now Mommie has to find something to keep it from itching or whatever it does that makes you want to scratch it. LOOKING GOOD YODIE!!

She's back to her old self. I was hoping to see her sit in her favorite spot and that's on a shelf in the patio room TV stand. She hopped up and watched the birds this afternoon. She wasn't able to do it w/the collar on b/c the shelf is very narrow. I tried to snap a pic but if she sees me coming now, she bolts. I managed to get her meds into her this evening but I have a feeling it's going to be the same game as before. I'll have to vary the times I give it to her b/c she's as fast as greased lightning. I'll have to grab her while she's dozing. I dislike doing that but she's got to take her meds.
