Jake’s infection site is oozing, but the antibiotics should make a big difference in the next 24 hours. He keeps using his paw to wash it, which is kind of gross, but I suppose the bacteria are no worse than what’s in his teeth and gums.
“Cleaning” it will probably make it worse, unless the antibiotic is industrial strength.
FS said the dentist told him to try and keep his tongue away from the extraction to prevent any problems with healing. I’m sure Jake’s wound is the same thing, only on the feline level.
One day this week, FS is going to take me to the thrift store so I can drop off some stuff. That will make it a little easier for me to maneuver in here. Gloriosky!
They picked me up and took me to the farmer’s market this morning before Walmart. I found some really dark honey, so I’ll try it in the next few days. The guy says he’s a beekeeper but doesn’t know what the bees feed on in the different seasons. Casey could tell me in a heartbeat!
