Dear Friends,
You may have seen Samwise a couple of photos earlier, when he was trying to figure out what the lump was under the quilt, and he was so embarrassed to find out that it was Miss Kitty.
We have attached an extract from that photo, zeroing in a little closer on the gremlin.
If you look closely at Samwise's neck, on his left side, you will be able to see a boo boo. This started as a scratch by a litter-mate almost three weeks ago. It has been treated by a vet orally, by injection and topically. Every time it looks like it is going to heal he gives it an awesome scratch, pulls the scab off, and we start over. We are truly becoming depressed -- and awfully worried.
Do we have any ideas
out there as to what one can to do stop the scratching which sets poor Samwise back every time he begins to show progress? The lotion we use on him, as prescribed by his vets, has some pain reliever which is supposed to mitigate the itching which leads to the scratching, but we despair.
Thank you all so much for any ideas you might have for Samwise,
