So the vet came out and checked on everybully.
Tidus has a big ulcer on his eye, more than likely caused by bacteria. It is the size of the back of a pencil eraser, and only shows when he put dye in his eye. He also has slight swollen ears, possible start of an infection.
Yuna seems to have picked up some sort of fungus or bacteria as well and looks kinda polka dotted in spots on her back. Just darker hair. There is no bumps or anything associated with it, Just darker spots of fur.
Jesse's toe is red and sore. Her toenail looks a bit sore and swollen/infected, but it seems to hurt her when her toe is touched. Have to clean with idodine stuff that stains really bad. If it is still bothering her in a week she may have a fractured toe, which could take months to heal.
So.... why do I not like the kiddie pool I bet you are asking. What does this all have to do with it?
Well, my bullies were all in optimum health a week ago, until we filled up the kiddie pool. We were cautious, we did not let it get grimy and dumped it after every single play session. They played in the pool about 3 or 4 times and we put it away, Monsoons coming to Arizona and the wind gets wicked, so we wanted to get it to a safe place for the next month.
But.... where on earth did Tidus get bacteria and Yuna get fungus? One guess for me was all it took. This is the only thing we could think of.
The vet says it was very likely if they played in there pretty hard in the pool, the bacterias or fungus could have been on the bottoms of their feet, and if they splashed (which they did- A LOT), could have gotton into the eyes, ears, skin, ect.
So, I have to bath Yuna with anti fungal hoping that is all it is, antibiotics for Jesse, ear drops for Tidus, Eye ointment for Tidus, pain med for Tidus, Iodine cleaner for Jesses toe.... I now officially feel like a bulldog pharmacy
Oh, guess who is doing great? The two who would not go into the pool. Mandy and Molly.
No more kiddie pools for my gang.
