He sometime will paw or scratch but it doesn't seem to bother him, I worry about an ear infection, but there is no discahrge or bad smell.

Re: Lucy and Michelle/Ear problems
Hi Beth He was checked out by a vet and there was no infection or mites just the inflammation. A that time he gave Junior a steroid shot and the swelling went down, but it only lasted a couple of days. I do have some Tresaderm that I am going to use on him. It was given to him last spring after he came home from being hit by a car. He did have mites at that time. His ears have been clear ever since then. One thing today he feels great!. He ran after me thinking he was getting another goody, (he did get one). I have not seen him move that fast in ages. Maybe all the supplements he gets is making him feel better. I love my Junior so much. I am hoping he can make it until March 9th when he has a real appointment scheduled. So far all his visits have been sick visits or getting the immuno-regulin shots. Maybe not he is supposed to get the feline distemper shots. He did not get vaccinated when Tiny did because he was sick at that time. One day at a time. Daisy is out of heat but for how long I don't know. She was only out of heat for two days the last time. Her appointment is Feb 27. Very sorry to hear of you loss Laura. Thanks for being such a good mom. Thanks Sally On 2/15/07, Gussies mom [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Has a vet checked for yeast or mites?

Re: Lucy and Michelle/Ear problems
I would consider not vaccinating Junior for anything unless the risk of the disease is greater than the risk of the vaccine ---highly unlikely if he stays inside. Dixie will never be vaccinated for anything again. If you have men who will exclude any of God's creatures from the shelter of compassion and pity, you will have men who will deal likewise with their fellow man.

Re: Lucy and Michelle/Ear problems
I have 8 other cats 5 are in/out cats, 2 are inside only and one is outside only(her choice). I know it is controversial the Merck Manual says to vaccinate except for FeLV. I do not try to keep them separated because it is less stressful. They are vaccinated against distemper, rabies and FeLV. Tiny did fine with the vaccines he died of something unrelated. I may just do the immuno-regulin. Any other opinions here. Thanks for your opinion.
