You want fries with that?

Took Mojo to the vet this morning for his follow up. He will be on the antibiotics for another week, since his gums were good, but not great. The culture results had come back, showing normal bacteria present in his mouth, but he did test positive for Bartonella (since he's an indoor cat we don't have to worry about fleas or ticks acting as a vector for it), which might explain why he lost that third tooth. The vet also examined the bare patches on his neck and saw no trace of fungal problems, or fleas, so he's likely scratching himself out of stress. She recommended getting a flea comb, because it does help pull out extra fur when grooming, so he doesn't ingest it if he's licking himself a lot. There's also a possible infection in one of his nail beds.

Once he finishes this week of antibiotics, he gets another three weeks of a different antibiotic which should hopefully clear his system of the Bartonella. He's not gonna be happy with us for the next month. *sighs*


Then after that adventure, it was off to catch the second half of the Cape May Furmeet. Picked up a few neat toys, a cat toy (of which both Mojo and Prince approve), candy, some sandalwood incense and a nifty little soapstone burner. Feet are hurting a bit, I really should get new sneakers, my current ones should have been replaced a long time ago.

I need to get out more, because even that small crowd made me nervous, shy, and twitchy. Bleh. I is a hermit.



Oh, and as usual, dragons:
