Hermoine

Since Monday night, Hermoine has been making somewhat wierd squeeky/hollow noises while she's breathing. Its almost labored. Last night, she tried to meow and what came out was pitiful. :(

I took her to the vet as soon as I got home from school today because she hadn't eaten and seemed to be in the same position she was in four hours prior.

She had to have chest and head xrays, was put under brief anesthesia and had her breathing passage ways and larynx examined.

Turns out, she has some sort of a bug that has caused her left lung to show cloudy in the xray and the tissue surrounding her larynx to swell and redden. She was given an injection of something to reduce the swelling (cortosone, I think) and was sent home with some antibiotic drops.

The vet said that had I not taken her in, her breathing tubes could have closed up. :( :( :(

She's resting under the bed now. Poor little girl.

Oh Kelly, poor baby kitten.

Hermoine get well soon, I can hear your mum worrying from here.

Aww....poor little baby. I hope she feels better soon!!


Our Dudley just got over a respitory infection, he was real hoarse and comfortable. Luckily it went away quickly, I hope the same for your little Hermoine!


Comfort hugs for Hermoine from Sammy and Dudley!!

Poor sweet girl! :( Get well soon, little Hermoine!

Oh No!! Good for you for taking her into the Vet's right away. It is amazing what they get into!! I'm glad you got her "fixed" and now everything is ok!!

POOR KITTEN...
I'll be praying for her Kelly... keep us updated!!:(

Thanks guys. :) I'll pass your well wishes on.

I guess this wasn't a URI, she said it could have been something from the kennel, brought home by one of the other cats. :eek:

Poor thing. I'm glad she's resting, I can tell she's not feeling good.

I'm so glad she has a watchful Mommy.

Ohh poor Hermoine, Toby and I are sending wishes specially for you, sweet girl!

:D Feel better soon sweetie

I'm so glad that you were alert enough to catch this quickly. Holding you and your furry crew in my thoughts and prayers.

Poor little Hermoine. :( A good thing you took her to the vet so soon! Since she's so young and otherwise a healthy kitty I think she'll be back to normal in no time. :)

Oh, you poor little darling Hermione! I hope your big brother Basie is giving you heaps of buttefly kisses (kisses with his eye lashes from a distance - don't want him getting sick too). Pixel sends some headbumpies.
