    Looks like Kali has Thyroid problems. I took her for her diabetes/glucose count last week. When I picked her up to put her in the carrier it felt like she lost some weight. Had the vet weigh her and test her blood work. she was a little over 6 pounds (last time i weighed her she was like 7 pounds). putting some treatment in her ears? Kinda weird spot to put medicine on a cat. It was either that or trying to get her to take a pill. Not sure how well that would have gone.

    I am glad you caught it and hope she is on the mend. I had a cat once that also had the transdermal medicine in her ear. Make sure you either use gloves or a Q-tip to apply it. If it can penetrate their skin it can penetrate yours and well. I used the Q-tip and it worked well.

    yeah i have gloves/finger cots and the medicine is in a tube that you twist so you just apply it on there.

    She has you.

    Zoe does that sometimes.  She struts around wanting you to know how beautiful she is and looks at you for a treat...  So I get them, lol!

    No, she starts off relatively gentle, I just need to know when to quit. If I persist, I’ll end up w/ a few scratches. (Usually when I’ve had a few drinks and / or she needs her claws trimmed, both of which would be my fault  :D
