Our two used-to-be-tomcats – Prankster Hrasko and Bubble Hrasko – had already surprised us several times with their health problems, so we were not very much afraid when we noticed on the younger that he had a pink eye. The nice veterinarian – who had already helped us several times – explained what the cause was, but the prescription and the treatment was a bit peculiar this time.

We had to buy a drug named Euphrasia C5. If someone did not know, he should suppose – based on the abbreviation C5 – that this must be a homeopathic remedy, in which the active ingredient is present in 100⁵ – i.e. ten billionth – dilution. That could even work, but based on the veterinarian C9 or C12 would be good as well. In the latest one the original tincture is diluted by 10²⁴ and there are high chances that there is not a single molecule of the original substance present in the solvent. According to the homeopaths the solvent (water or alcohol) will “remember” the substance and it will express the proper effect within my cat.
