Tommy is home and he has been eating bits and pieces (pellets and greens), but no hay as yet.
This morning I gave him the first injection of Streptacare which is the antibiotic (penicillin) which Ian gave me to inject. The injection was surprisingly easy as Tommy didn't struggle at all being cornered in one corner of the cage. It was a bit more difficult to clean off the abscess, but we got there in the end. I am not flushing the abscess as it goes right through to his mouth and I don't want him to swallow anything.
He is pretty bright, but doesn't like the abscess being touched. I don't blame him, but it has to be done.
