Poor boy. hope the vet can get it sorted. Awaiting news, Moli; fingers crossed.

Merlin has a huge abscess, the vet thinks he has been bitten by a weasel or similar.....he is now on Abs for the next 10 days, he was such a good boy at the vets did not utter a sound and let her examine him...,

That sounds nasty Moli

hope the ABs clear it soon.

Do weasels come into your garden?

Poor Merlin! Have they lanced it? Hopefully the Ab's will kick in nice and quickly and he'll feel lots better.

I have seen a couple Mags, but all the cats go over to the small wooded copse opposite the house...

No she did not lance it Liz, she picked a scab off and it oozed puss, but not a lot, so will have to keep an eye on it incase it does start to weep..

How awful! Did she give him a painkiller too; that must hurt dreadfully! Bad weasel!!

Oh poor baby Merlin

That must be so painful and uncomfortable. I hope the medication starts to work soon and the infection subsides.

Poor lambkin - hope the ABs help very soon.

Where is the head of the abscess Moli?
