Hexapuma comes home

[rolanni]

Hex is back from his adventure at the vet's, somewhat confused and jittery, which I lay at the feet of the painkillers. We have Baytril (antibiotic) pills, to give by mouth, and drops to be administered in both ears, starting tomorrow. Not looking forward to that, actually, his ear's gotta smart. Of course, we also have painkiller drops. I guess the drill is: painkiller, wait, ear drops, pill.

The operation went well; the polyp was removed clean, and the vet is pleased. I'm thinking that Hex's hearing may improve somewhat, since the growth was obstructing the canal in his good ear.

He's snacking a little now; I hope he'll curl up in his chair and get some sleep...

Should there be another item on that list? After the final pill, add "reward?" At least when I was raising dogs, having some treat or at least a good petting helped to make putting up with the indignities of pills and such a bit more acceptable?
