Might be worth asking @Former-Member youve had it for a while now so it might need something else to help clean it out esp with a run down immune system

Re: rough time
I better stay on the Ensure drink for longer as I was going to stop it, but you are right. I must have a run down immune system after all this added stress & all that muck that ended up on me, it went on my face first then on my body & arms & the wall, I could not get out of the way it just got bombed all over the place!!

Re: rough time
@outlander Yep will do that, oh boy poor Esther looked like a dog bag of yukky just running out from under her neck non stop for ages she is healing now I had to keep cleaning up after her as all her bedding & her fur was just absolutely drenched, my cloths line has all the washing still hanging on it I haven't been up to taking it off the line yet 😞 I was going to just thro everything in the bin but I used my new good towles as I don't have any old ones so I disinfected & bleached them & sanitised them & my cloths & all that was used. I used so much paper towel rolls I always buy them as I always have a lot of animal mess to clean up & the paper towels are gr8 for that & I buy lots of Glen 20 products because I am health minded.

Re: rough time
They should be ok because they were washed quickly if your worried maybe put them on another load again @Former-Member to make sure its all gone... If its still draining it might be worth doing as i suggested with the bandages? Otherwise your constantly cleaning it all up. Has the vet given her some antibiotics or treated her since it opened up?
