Rambo update

I am using the medication I recieved from Harrison's Pet Products. I don't know yet about the other meds but the Soother Plus cream is amazing. His feet starting healing with the first application.

It has been a week now and he no longer fights me when I touch his feet. The Soother plus deadens the pain as well as heals. His feet are now pink and swelling is going down. He tolerates the Tropical Rain spray (Myrtle loves it.) I just can't get him to eat the Dietary Booster. (Mytle eats it if I put it on a twig she can tear up.)

:amazon: Rambo is having less trouble with his feet. I exfoliate them once a week with a super soft toothbrush while he showers and then put the soother on. But every once in a while he gets the water blister looking thing on the top of his feet. It will last about tow days then go away. Whatever he has must be chronic and we are in for the long haul.

I found Rambo this morning sitting on my daughter Rachel while she was sleeping. At first I thought he was trying to wake her but then I realized he was pulling guard duty. I got a picture of it and some day I will take ime to think of how to put the pictures in the forum.

He had extremly dry feet and he was picking at them and making sores. Worse than that he grew bubles like water blisters on the top. One on each foot.

The medication has not solved the problem but kept it under control. The dry feet are soft now and he only gets a water bubble every once in a while.
