Last Thursday, Chloe starting itching and scratching... however there weren't any fleas and we hadn't changed her food so it should have been a reaction. Her skin was really dry and flaky in spots. Normally Chloe runs to the door when I get home and she's usually pretty active with her toys. Friends kept her over the weekend while we were in Pigeon Forge. She laid around all weekend and seemed pretty miserable. We had done the vet's recommendation of children's benadryl 1/2 teaspoon twice a day, but it wasn't helping anything. On Sunday when she still had no energy and it was obvious that she didn't feel good, we decided for Preston to take her to the vet the next morning.
She got a shot, cream for the raw places she had scratched at (one on her back is really bad, but starting to heal now), and an antibiotic for her to take for 7 days. Since going to the vet, she has been doing better, but still wasn't herself. She started playing more, but not like usual...
Well, that changed this morning! She must be feeling better and had a good night's sleep because as soon as we woke up, she was ready to play with her chicken. I am so glad my little furbaby is feeling better!
Glad Chloe is feeling better!!!!
