Leo and Sami AF update

Just for info really for anyone who has to go through the AF process.

Leo's fistula has healed up beautifully.

They are both on one 50mg Atopica and half a nizoral once a week.

This took a bit of experimentation. The vet wasnt keen on dropping below every other day but Sami still isnt very happy with it, it still isnt unknown for her to be sick on the day she has her meds. I gradually reduced the frequency of the dose over a few weeks until we got to the once a week which they have been on for a few weeks and the AF hasnt resurfaced.

So really pleased with them both, still have to have a bum check every few days but so far so good.
