Oh, it's nothing to "yikes" about. I put a measured amount of cream on the inside of her ear, near the tip, and it's absorbed through the skin. The trouble is, I have to distract her for quite a while so she doesn't clean it off. Some doctors don't like the transdermal form because the cat is not getting a consistent amount of the medicine each day. The only other option is radio-iodine, and I'm hoping we don't have to do that.
Do you have more than one cat?
