I have another update since I feel like everyone is invested
1 ear scab has been scratched off, and the 2nd is 1/2 off, another day or 2 and I think itāll be off. Sheās still eating/drinking great, gaining weight back, and doing well. Photos below! My biggest concern now is that sheās continuing to scratch the ear where the scab has fallen off and is making it bleed. Any suggesting there?! Thank you!
That's good news that the scabs and pus plug have finally come off!The peroxide is just for the ear canal, and just a drop or two, to clean it out. For the large open wounds, use saline, chlorhexidene or Betadine, and then switch back to saline. After each cleaning apply plain Neosporin ointment twice daily until they heal. @Wyorp Rock may prefer something different, and she may be on later.
I agree with what @Eggcessive has suggested. I would only use Peroxide in the ear canal to work up any bits of pus that may still be in the ear.
For the raw areas of the face/outer ears, apply your ointment to help soothe the skin, hopefully she won't scratch much longer.
You've really worked on her, I sure hope she heals up with no complications like the others did.
And yes! I (We) love getting updates, I actually had thought of her this morning and wondered if you and she were making progress! I see that you have
