Poor Scooter :-/ It's so frustrating when they itch like that -- you just want them to be comfortable.
We've tried everything trying to figure out the cause of Phelix's allergies - to no avail. Thank you for the kind wishes, Beth. Happy, peaceful, itch-free days to you guys. Please give Scooter a kiss from me. elizabeth On 6/6/07, Beth Noren <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Hi, haven't been on list much lately but I wanted to chime in about the soft paws. I have an itchy boy here, (Scooter, food allergies) and I still have to e-collar him even with the soft-paws on his back feet. If I take the collar off he kicks his head right open. Also, he likes to chew the caps off. I am so against declawing, but might be desperate enough to have a rear-declaw done on him someday if I can't figure out what's making him itch... Elizabeth, I'm glad that Phelix's eye is going to be ok, and I hope the Benadryl will help him again. And I hope you get some rain to ease your breathing too (although the burst of energy from the pred sounds nice!)
