Hi friends!
Thank you all so much for the POTP you have been sending. The good news is, my ears are white again. So it’s definitely allergies.The itching is still bad but Mom and Dad think it’s just from the scabs healing now.
Here’s how it all looks:
That scab actually goes straight up and ends between my eyes 😥
It doesn’t look too bad in the pictures but Mom says it feels awful when she pets me.
I get itchiest in the middle of the night. That’s when my Benadryl starts wearing off. Last night Mom woke up at 4 in the morning and rubbed my ears for 20 minutes. Not my head though. That hurts!
Hopefully, with a little more time, the itching will stop. Mom has a few more ideas up her sleeves.
Anywho, today is Thursday. My favorite day because it’s Mom’s Friday. The weather here has been awful so I’m hoping for lots of cuddles and loves.
Hmmm…you know what I need? A pair of pajamas. That way when it’s rainy and gloomy outside Mom and I can BOTH lay on the couch in our jammies with our fuzzy blankets. Yep, that’s what I need. If anyone has an extra pair, let me know 😀
Hi Noodle Buddy! I saw your Post about scratching and thought ………. a scratching post! But then, that is something that stupid cats are supposed to use isn’t it! I am so lucky that I don’t have allergies …. but then I do! I am allergic to seeing food and not being able to grab it! Does that count? Woof! Ray.

Sounds like a pretty severe allergy to me! Anywho, back to this scratching post thing. They sell this special scratcher for cats that Mom wants to get for me: http://www.taylorgifts.com/images/products/p61928_500.jpg She thinks it would be perfect for me because I always stand under the dining room chairs, rocking back and forth to scratch my back 😛

I understand how it can be confusing. This is Jacques mom. I usually write the blog & make comments. Every now & then Jacques commandeers the blog or really, really wants to put in his two cents. Instagram is a whole different story. Instagram is all him! I have no control over that (& subsequently cannot be held responsible for its content). 🙂

Oh Meow Noodle, dat’s scary. Dat’s a little too close to yous eye. Ask yous mommy to put a little Raw Shea Butter or Olive Oil on yous ouchies so they don’t itch so much. As they dwy out they itch more. Mommy buys our shea butter on da ebay unnew organic, raw or pure shea butter. It be 100% safe even ifin yous or yous kitty sib eats it. Hope yous have a gweat day. Sendin’ purrayers.

Thanks for the info girls! Mom’s going to try the shea butter. She was worried about oil getting everywhere because I have so many scabs, that’s why she didn’t do the coconut oil. See, I keep taking my front paws and scratching from the back of my head to my nose. So, whatever she puts on my head is going to get on my paws. Thanks again! *ear licks* Noodle

Yeah Noodle weez dun dat afur too, but once da skin and scabs be moisturized a bit, they don’t itch as much. And da Shea butter has sum healin’ purropurrties too, so hopefully yous ouchies will go away faster. Good luck, weez sendin’ purrayers.

Crikey Noodle …. you gotta stop scratching. I know its itchy but it would be better if you didn’t scratch. Our Lucy used to have those allergy problems and she scratched. Mum put soft boots on her. She still tried to scratch but didn’t do as much damage. Maybe worth a try.

Bear gets the same type of scabs on the top of his head. And I don’t even see him scratching – but pretty sure it is allergies. Heal up soon Noodle. In the meantime, have your Mom get you some cool looking socks. They may feel weird, but you should at least look awesome wearing them.

Noodle I hope the itching goes away soon… I had such allergies on my belly and between my legs, that was as uncomfy as sitting on an ants pile. I like the idea with wearing a PJ the whole day and hanging around together while doing nothing … well maybe doing nothing except to eat tons of snacks :o)
