Poor Vandal. If it's not one thing, it's another. This morning, Julia found a claw on the bed. Not a casting, but a whole claw. And a bloody raw area on his paw. So he got to go to the vet. The claw is infected. What we're trying to sort out is which came first:
He's got another claw that's as bad, so we're going to keep a close eye on this.
And horror of horrors, the vet trimmed his claws! (and showed me exactly what Vandal needed done)
So the poor kitty is on antibiotics for a while and foot soaking twice a day (yes, in water and chlorhexadrine). If it doesn't clear, he's looking at amputation/biopsy of the affected area.
