Harley went to visit the vet today because her right ear has swollen and has a large bubble on the inside. Her ear is infected, thanks to ear mites. I could just kick myself because I bought ear mite medicine to give her, Zeke and Shandee in October. I didn't do it right away and Zeke died, Shandee left and we now have Josiah, Minnie Pearl and Grizabella. So now Harley is having surgery to drain her ear today. She will have stitches that will need to be removed in a couple of weeks. I will make sure they are removed, unlike I did with our cat Jacob. There was a miscommunication and I thought the vet said his stitches would dissolve, so I never took him back in. Several months later I noticed his ear was still flopped down. When I looked closer I could see that the big blue stitches had not dissolved at all. Since Jacob had moved next door, where he liked to sleep on the neighbors horse I didn't see him everyday, but I still felt bad.
So anyway, Harley is at the vet right now, she may or may not get to come home tonight. One thing for sure the other are getting ear mite medicine tonight.
P.S. Harley weighed in at 10 pounds today!!
