Cleo Has a UTI

I took Cleo into the vet; turns out she has a raging UTI. The sufferer of many UTIs myself, I feel so bad for her. I wish I'd recognized the symptoms earlier.

Turns out Flagyl treats anaerobic bacteria, not aerobic (or perhaps I have that backwards).

Anyway, the vet prescribes Clavamox, but she has the pharmacy compound it into a gel that you wipe into the ear. Hopefully it won't cause any further vomiting. Wouldn't you know this has to happen shortly before we leave town for a few days?
