Thanks to you all for the well wishes and concern.
Rose, yes I have been, and am, bathing Ebby's tail, with salt water as the vet told me. I did mention using something else but she didn't seem to keen on the idea. However, if I can get to a chemist tommorow I am going to try and get one, or both, of the liquids you and sas recommended.Originally posted by rosethecopycat
Are you soaking her tail?
There is a blue liquid antiseptic that vets use. Novasalan (sp)

Also, I found a soft, big collar on line and used it with Miley.
sas, thanks for the link to the soft collar, it looks real good. Trouble is it isn't sold in this country. Though after doing a web search I did find something similar, a soft vinyl one, sold by a marketing company who supplies vet surgerys. I will give them a ring tommorow and see if they will let me have one. If they do it won't get to me for about a week (the holidays again) even so it will be well worth having.
I held her dish so she could eat - she can't seem to get the hang of the bigger cone - and later on she made her way downstairs (I managed to spot her before Bob so she didn't get chased ). I've attached a picture(s) taken just a few minutes ago of her on the sofa.
Thanks again
Chris
