Ms. Claudia was taken to the vets on Aug. 5th because her chin was very swollen due to feline acne. The vet gave her a depo shot and it has been healing. Last Thursday she started sneezing like crazy again we thought maybe it was because we had our central air running more and little colder than usual so we turned it way down and hoped that it would make a difference for her. Well this weekend she seemed to get worse with doing that. She is sneezing trying to breathe out of her nose even though she is stuffy.
She won't come out from under the bed so last night I had to put her in the bathroom so that way if she gets into the vets today to get an antibotic shot I can catch her otherwise she won't come out. This morning it looked like her eyes were looking a little better but then she started sneezing and of course her eyes would water some more.
She had an URI in June and she was given calvomox for it but she was very difficult to pill so I'm hoping that I can get her into the vets today to get a convenia shot so that way we don't have to worry about giving her pills. Poor girl I feel so terrible she is sick again. I'm just wondering if it was stress from going to the vets on Aug. 5th caused this to flair up because back in June when I took her to the vets for the first URI she was at the vets about a week prior to that getting her vaccines and anal gland expression.
Thanks in advance for the prays.

Some of you might recall the barn cat that I took in. His name is Ziggy. Well lately it seems like he is just lying around much of the time except when I pour food or if we get in the lunch meat. He loves people food. The only thing that seems semi-weird to me is that he seems to have a lot of weight around his mid-section instead of fat hanging from his lower belly like most cats get.
He was wormed and he was also given a pill for tape worms as well. He is estimated around 10 years old or at least that's what his previous owner said she thought he was. I'm just a little worried that he might be losing some weight because he's not getting much exercise so he's not getting much muscle and I just wonder if the food he is eating is just going right towards his mid-section.
When the vet calls back about Claudia I'm going to mention about Ziggy's waist issue and see what he thinks, he saw him last month when they did his eye surgery.
Thanks,
Melissa
