    Herpes going around

    There seems to be a slight herpes outbreak at my house.
    Monday evening, Olive started squinting one eye. On Tuesday, the vet stained her eye to make sure there weren't any scratches, and she took her eye pressures to check for glaucoma. Everything was normal, except for the squinting and some discharge.
    Olive was put on eye medication, and she seems to be better.
    A few days ago, Miss Kitty started sneezing and some coughing, so she was seen today. No chest congestion, or colored nasal discharge. No medication needed. She had a similar episode several weeks ago, and it resolved.
    In both cases, the verdict is a herpes flare-up.
    All my cats have been on Viralys for years. I'm not sure what could have stressed them out, but then again, kitties are an enigma!

    Death thought about it.

    Vielen Dank, Prathima! Sie fuehlen sich ein bisschen better.
    They are a little better, but Miss Kitty is still sneezing, and not eating as well.

    "That's the power of kittens (and puppies too, of course): They can reduce us to quivering masses of Jell-O in about two seconds flat and make us like it. Good thing they don't have opposable thumbs or they'd surely have taken over the world by now." -- Paul Lukas
