Update @ 3:45pm
Just got back from the V-E-T. Jaz has a fungal infection in his right ear canal. Some of the "juice" that was coming out was from a small infection where his claw scratched the ear. It's all cleaned out, and we have an antifungal ointment to apply daily for the next week (yes, that will be fun!). But I'm glad that it was something relatively minor.
He's pissed because Dr. Butts trimmed ALL of his claws! He was NOT a happy camper.
But he's home now, with a belly full of treats, and hiding under one of the display Christmas trees.
Thanks for all your thoughts and purrs.

From this morning:
After a weekend where I had tummy trouble, this morning Jazper seems to have an ear infection. He has always favored his right ear, and sometimes it seems to get some fluid in it, but it's never been this bad. Hopefully the V-E-T can squeeze us in this afternoon (fortunately, we close the shop @ 2pm on Mondays).
Right now, Jaz wants to be held and for me to massage the outside ear-canal area. Then he will shake his head and splatter me with ear juice. Nice.
I know that there's lots of kitties in the CB who need more prayers than we do, but keep us in your thoughts today, okay?
Thanks!

Aw, poor Jaz ... hope you got to the v-e-t and that things are getting taken care of. Nothing worse than being splattered with ear juice - unless maybe it's nose juice instead!
ReplyDeleteIck, Jazper we hope you feel better soon. We doubt the Not the Mama appreciates the splatter. Purrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
ReplyDeleteWe have plenty of purrs left for Jazper! I hope that he gets better. It sounds this doesn't feel very good.
ReplyDeleteYaY! Glad that Jaz is on the mend!
ReplyDeleteWe are glad you went to the V-E-T and found out what all this ear juice was about. You sure don't want to mess around with something like that. Now, be a good boy and take the medicine so the infection goes bye bye.
ReplyDeleteHugs and purrs!
Yay, glad to hear the good news and it wasn't anything too terrible. Sorry they cut your pawsome man-claws, but they will grow back soon. Just remember to scratch all the stuff you're not supposed to as revenge for the trim. MAN-CATS DON'T GET PAWDICURES!! That's girly stuffs.
ReplyDeleteOh,I am so happy that Jazper is OK!
ReplyDeleteWOOT!!!!!!!
Sorry about the ear meds though, heehee ;)
Purrs Mickey
Jaz, I know how yucky gettin medicine is, but it WILL make yur ear feel better. And wif trimmed claws, Not-the-Momma won't be complainin so much when you wanna shnuggle! Nice one splatterin ear juice round you - that's talented.
ReplyDeletePurrs,

Oooh, poor Jazper. Ear infection sounds like a big owie. We hope he does not hurt NTM while administering the ointment, and we are purring for the infection to go away!
ReplyDeleteOh Jazpur, we are so glad it was a fixable thing wrong with your ear. Sorry you got your claws trimmed, bit it might save a repetition of da evil ear juice. You behave yourself when NTM puts that ointment in ok?

Feel better soon Jaz. Purrs!
ReplyDeleteEar juice --- eeeewwwww! (from the mombean)
I'm glad Jazpur is doing better. I tend to get a lot of wax in my ears and that makes me prone to infections.My mommy got some stuff at the vet's that she gives me to clean out my ears. It's a cucumber and melon cleansing solution by Animal Pharmaceuticals.Maybe it would help you.
ReplyDeletePurrrs, purrrs, purrrs for Jazper! Glad the ear problem was fixable!
ReplyDeleteYour FL furiends,
Hey Jaz, I never had ear juice problems. Glad the VET was able to help. Snuggle with NTM and get better soonest.
ReplyDeleteJazper, honey puss - I'm so glad everything is okey-dokey!
ReplyDeleteJazper, let NTM put the stuff in your ear. Ok?
