Established what the problem was with Smudge. Came home from work and he had a large swelling on his head (abscess on his ear). He must have got this from the fight he had before he came into care. Got him to the vets after a bit of a struggle, he did not feel well and did not want to go into the basket but who could blame him.
This little guy really does not like the basket (we will have to work on this) and re-opened the scratch on his nose by trying to dig his way out!
Anyway the vets were pleased with the abscess as it had burst and looked nice and clean so a course of antibiotics would sort everything out. And as usual after I had warned them that he was not a happy boy, had had to fling myself between him and a dog in the waiting room which had decided to see what was under the blanket, he was the perfect gentleman.
He is feeling a lot better and pills are going in his food although we are going to have to work on the trust issues as at the moment I am the mean person who keeps putting him in the basket.
I cannot wait for when he has to go and be castrated!!!!
