Did you know? Yeast...
🔬...is always around!
Malassezia is the most common commensal fungal organism on our cats and dogs skin. It’s normal for it to be present in really small numbers.
🔬...is opportunistic.
In healthy dogs, a warm, humid environment can encourage Yeast to multiply, leading to an opportunistic infection. So ear infections can be more common in humid weather or frequent swimmers!
🔬 ...is Allergy’s best friend.
Dogs who have an underlying allergic or atopic condition very commonly develop Yeast infections in their ears and elsewhere on the body!
🔬...doesn’t need an antibiotic!
They need an antifungal. This is why your vet will ask to take a sample for cytology before choosing the best treatment for your pet.

Pet Hack! Getting cats to take medication - it can be quite tricky, try out this hack 😇
1.) Place the pill on your middle finger ✋🏻
2.) Place treats either side of the pill so your cat smells the treat and not the medicine! 😽
3.) Watch in delight as your cat eats the pill, thinking it is a treat 💊
4.) Feed your cat the other two treats as a reward 😻
