Neosporin before the ear prick, or after?

He's hiding, knows what's coming.....

After you finish testing, then put just a little dab on the ear. Give him some treats!

 

[Jan D & Squeaky]

Thanks. Right after he refuses the treats. However we're both doing a little better... a little....

Glad to hear its getting a bit better.

Read about that cream\gel on the message boards and it looks useful - Does anyone know what a UK equivalent of that is please?

And on a full curve day can you apply it between tests or do you to wait until the end of the testing sequence ie 12 hrs is done?

Thanks

I think it's Polysporin?

@Gill & Mac (UK) -

I've never looked for an equivalent, Gill. I've always used Vaseline. Sorry, I'm useless to you on this one.

I take it back, Polysporin is the Canadian equivalent. Here's an (old) post from Elizabeth and Bertie though, maybe there's something new on the market since then:

Diane, as far as I am aware there is no definitive alternative to neosporin in the UK (but someone please correct me if I am wrong...?)

In terms of 'getting the blood to bead up and not disappear into the fur' a small smear of simple Vaseline works really well. I did this for many months before Bert's ears 'learned to bleed'.

In terms of a 'painkilling gel/cream' (numbing gel/cream) in the UK -frankly, I do not know of one.... And believe me, I have looked....

But there are certainly anti-bacterial creams/gels available, and I'm pretty sure I have one somewhere in a drawer...(but it will take me a wee while to look for it to find out the name...because although I bought it, I don't think I ever actually used it....)
