Default Otis got skunked - Part II`

Susan M wrote:
He stinks way more than Chester did after I washed him. The problem
is that Otis not only got it along his neck and the side of his face
like Chester, but also got it full on the front of his face. I
couldn't really wash with that mixture all over his nose and around
his eyes so there is this savage skunk smell coming from his head.

I have to phone the vet for some of their concoctions as I can't
possible lather him again. He's got something with a pump spray that
I can put on gauze and leave on.

Phoned the city and they don't trap - only extermination services will
get skunks. We'll try first putting ammonia rags in the entrance of
the den after nightfall so that when it comes back in the AM it won't
have anywhere to set up shop. That's supposing that we know for sure
that its in the front step - it might be by the back fence too though.

Otis and Chester


What a mess! I hope you find a solution to Otis' stinkiness soon, the poor
baby. Most of all I hope you get that skunk.
