All my cats are due for a treatment of Revolution ASAP, but...
One of them (Gon-nee) has to be treated for an ear infection. She'll be getting Enrofloxacin (Batril) orally for at least 2 week (probably more), along with Mometamax ear drops.
She also needs to be spayed ASAP. This will involve anesthesia.
My idea is to apply the Revolution, before we get another flea infestation (They are from hell, I swear). Then, wait 4 days to start Gon-nee on the antibiotics. I bought probioitcs for her, and some for the rest too.
my cats.
I prefer not to have her spayed with an infection, and antibiotics in her. I could do a 12-14 day regiment, and have her spayed a week later, if the ear looks ok. Anyone know if this is a good plan, and if the infection is only slight, should I spay her or wait until it is fully cleared up?
I do flush her ears with Chlorhexiderm solution and swab them out after 5 minutes for now. Some of them are still a little skittish from the Jul 4th fireworks (more like June 24th, still continuing just a little here). I'm using aromatherapy, extra treats, and a lot of extra love, among other stuff.
About the ear flushing, is .3ml enough? Too much? She is a 5 lb dwarf. Came from a litter of 3, all runts, She was the only one to survive, even though I took the very best care of them.
I thank you all for your time and consideration. Give your cats an extra pet for me.
