At this point it seemed as if Otis’s skin was falling off. His ears were raw and stiff, the insides were bright red. He was barely eating, it felt like I was force feeding him his medicine. Each time we showered him fur was coming off in chunks and every shake of his ears would spray blood up the shower walls.
I started to question everything we were doing.. Is he dying? Should we put him to sleep? Am I hurting him more than helping? Should we stop, should we keep trying?
Needless to say I cried often and spent a lot of time laying in bed with my best friend…. and scheduled another vet appointment.
