This morning it was decided to bar the cat door that is in the bathroom door. Our bathroom is so small anyway, but this morning when I got out of the shower, there were twelve cats on the floor! I didn’t need a bathmat, I had cats to step on- which is where the problem lies. I stood there for over twenty minutes trying to get the cats to move. Some of them, very kindly did so and jumped up on the towels or on my bathrobe! Hard to get ready for the day with so much “help” nearby.

Had to take Wallie to the vet today. His left eye was swollen up although there was no discharge. I suspected that he might have an abscess ready to blow, and turns out I was right. Warm compresses to the eye resulted in the decompression of the wound. I didn’t want the vet to give him steriods so settled for antibiotics and a watchful eye on him for now.

Here is another photo taken before the abscess was ready to strike. But you can see the left eye isn’t symmetrical in nature.
