'Elf (feline and piscine)

Yesterday we treated for white spot in the (much-depleted) fish tank... again.

Today, Little wouldn't let me scritch her right ear, which was full of grot. The vet peered in and found not horrendous amounts of grot, an ulcer, and probably a yeast infection rather than mites. Eardrops for her.

It's an indication of our overall level of grottiness that when M called me over to help do Little's ears--the bottle of drops was being recalcitrant--I discovered that he'd grabbed the wrong bottle from the fridge and he was attempting to treat the cat with eye drops prescribed for his viral conjunctivitis last month.

Still, both cats were programmed, so we should stay flea-free.
