Luna's vet appointment went well, I havnt cleaned her ears in a week just been useing epi otic and her ear ointment each day and the vet said they were basicly already clean so she only had to flush them to get them sparkling, her bowels are fine now and she's got more energy, we've got greenies for her teeth which thankfully she likes. The only down side is her heart the vets not sure if there will be treatment but is referring us to a university professor who will be the in house cardiologist for a few weeks, so we will get her checked out and see what if anything can be done. So today seems like a good day for Luna, plenty of energy and no infections :)

thumbs up and positive thoughts

She's a strong girl I'm sure whatever were told she will pull thru, she wrestles with a bulldog x staffy and wins, that's strength right there lol

Update: our vet on Monday was concerned about Luna's runny eyes which we were previously told was due to narrow or blocked tear ducts, she offered a free flu test which usually costs a bundle (very sweet of her) the test results were positive and showed bronchial disease. Luckily it's treatable so more meds for Luna but + side it's a chicken flavored paste so she shouldn't hate it.

Newest update: Lunas still undergoing treatment for her ears, we have been doing our best but her ears still contain bacteria, we are going to try a new treatment which is our only safe option as the ear drum is not visible, she stayed in the vet hospital today and the nurses flushed her ears 3 times in hopes the drum would become visible but it failed, We had 3 options 1 was to put her to sleep but due to her heart it was not recommended, another is to trial an antibiotic that could poison her if there is any hole or wound on her ear drum (unknown as the ear drum isnt visible) and the third is a very expensive made to order antibiotic which is safe but not guaranteed.

Of course ive gone for the safe option and will be selling what i can to raise the money for it. Fingers crossed this one works, Im not going to agree to put her safety at risk.

Poor girl shes really copped it this year

I hate seeing all these bumps in the road for you and Luna. Let's hope this works!!!


I know who knew a 6month checkup would bring to light so many problems, In the back of my mind i was worried the murmur was still there so i was prepared for the worst but the rest of it I wouldnt even have thought of, poor girl hates me now, every day shoving things in her ears lol, she will forgive me eventually especially if the new meds work, just cant wait to start them on friday and give her some peace :p

Newest update: we had some custom medication made for lunas ears (she had a strange bacterial infection that would not leave her) shes been on it for 3 weeks now and her ears are much improved the vet said there almost completely clear and theres only a small amount of bacteria left. shes all clear (except the murmur) otherwise :) hopefully our next visit in 2 weeks will see her ears given the all clear and she can go back to being a psycho kitty without us squirting stuff in her ears or poping things in her mouth. Fingers crossed :)
