poor happiness... and bad us... bad bad us... jackson took happiness to the vet just before the we went to the softball tournament (so is that like 10 days ago, at least?) and we got medicated ear cleaner and more antibiotic cream cuz he has a nasty bacterial ear infection and it looks like the medicated clearer was never opened... i know i was forgetting each day and it seems jackson was too, though she is seldom home and working so much and stressed and distracted so she has better excuses... all this to say i noticed the cleaning solution and medication on the corner of the coffee table and impulsively decided to clean his ears... first i had to find cotton balls... jackson had a few in her bathroom... and i grabbed paper towels and went to work and that's where this entry begins, bad bad us...
ten times i rinsed his ear and only about the ninth did the dark brown black waxy sludge start to lighten... he wanted the cleaning... i could tell the cleaning felt good, though hurt a little, i could tell the cleaning was satisfying his ned to itch and he will probably be itching a lot more tonight... maybe a benadryl... he definitely needs cleaning twice a day for a while... they said 10-14 days and here we had not even really begun... so with big apologies, i will write notes and set alarms to remind me to clean his ears twice a day from now on...
how are you? :)
