I think I can safely say that my luck has changed for the worse. I had to bring Arthur to the vet this morning because his eye was all swollen and red and oozing. The vet put some dye in his eye to see if it was scratched and indeed, there is a huge abrasion on the most prominent part of his eye. Poor guy! So in addition to the two pills twice a day that I have to give Penny, I have to put two different kinds of goo in Arthur's eye. One goes in twice a day and the other goes in thrice a day. I estimate that I will have to wake up half an hour earlier than usual for the next week in order to medicate my cats.
The exam, the meds, the eye dye and the fact that the vet expressed Arthur’s rather backed up and full anal glands (very stinky, indeed), cost over $100. I have to take him back in next week to see if the scratch has healed. He’s worth it, but it just seems like my funds are flying out of my wallet as fast, if not faster than they go in. Sigh.
