They are SO adorable, Lori! Especially that little Moxie and her sleeping habits. :D
I sure hope they don't get full blown URI's. :(

UPDATE
Moxie and Decker are at the vet where they will be staying the night. They were worse this morning and the vet decided they needed to come in for intense treatement so I dropped them off early. I just spoke with the vet and she said she's given them antibiotics and been feeding them yogurt with several good cultures and prescription GI food and their stools are already looking better from what she saw in the carrier this morning. She will call me tomorrow with an update and thinks if they keep improving at this rate they will get to come home then.
My little guys could sure use some healing PT prayers as well as their brother and sister (Pops and Twinks) who were adopted a couple of weeks ago. They both came down with it this weekend. :( I feel so bad. We thought they would be okay since it had been a couple weeks.
Many prayers and good thoughts coming frm Indiana that Moxie and Decker get well soon. Hopefully a dreaded night at the whitecoats will help them! Hope their fursibs get well soon also. (((hugs))) to you!
Oh Lori, I am so sorry that your poor babies are going through this. Please don't feel bad, it's not your fault. Obviously this disease seems to get worse before it gets better and you never know when it will pop up.
I'm glad to hear that they are doing a little bit better though.
Prayers on the way for Decker & Moxie that they have a full and speedy recovery very soon.
((((((HUGS)))))) for you Lori.
There will be Lots of Pet Angel Mom Cats to be with Decker and Moxie Moo, to calm them and help them fight off thier illness.
Hopefully those Visits and Our Prayers will help those Babies turn the corner.
I'm sorry, Lori! It certainly is NOT your fault!!! Outdoor moms eat all kinds of nasty things and pass the bacteria along to their babies! :( Your vet will know what to do to get them back on track!
Hugs,
Kim
They're sure in good hands now! To think what could've happened to them if you hadn't come along! They'll clear up in no time thanks to you!
Glad to hear there's some improvement! Sorry the fursibs got it...but maybe there is something Moxie and Decker's vet can pass on to the others'.
They are happy babies and with the vet ICU and all your love before and now, they will be healthy before you know it. :)
Mom, you better enjoy this break. They are going to come back home and start zipping all around with excitement and feeling better!
:( I'm so sorry Lori. Poor babies. Sore behinds and tummies. I know that they will get better, so don't lose hope. It will get better. Lots of kittens get sick, like Kim said, Momma cats pass things along.
Just think if you did not get them, no treatment and in the cold.. They probably would not have even had a chance.
I am praying for Moxie Moo, Decker, Pops and Twinks. *hugs* to you as well. And please keep us updated! Katie and kitties
Aww...poor widdle kitties. It's so wonderful that they have a hoo-man mommie that take good care of them.
Prayers for a quick recovery!
Lori, I'm so sorry to hear that Moxie and Decker are very sick and have to stay at the vet's overnight.:( Hopefully they'll improve a lot and will be able to come home soon and will recover quickly. I'm also sorry to hear that both of their siblings are also sick.:( Kittens immune systems are just so fragile. Lots of prayers and positive thoughts are being sent their way. I hope that this will end soon.
UPDATE for 11/14.
The kittens are still at the vet for one more night. The vet called today and said Moxie was much better and her stools were almost back to normal. Decker still had "pancake" poo but it was getting better. She also said Moxie's inner eyelids were completely down and Decker's were almost down.
Although Moxie was bouncing off the walls of the cage she felt one more night would be best. It works out well for me too because I have to take my Dad to the doctor tomorrow and wouldn't be around to watch them. I can pick them up late afternoon this way and they will only have to be alone a couple of hours while I take my Dad back home.
I spent today cleaning and sanitizing the office where they've been staying. I wiped every hard surface with clorox wipes and I steam cleaned the carpet and furniture. Hopefully there will be no reinfecting.
Lori, thanks for the update.:) I'm glad to hear that at least Moxie's poos are becoming much better. Hopefully they both bounce back quickly and get rid of whatever nasty bug they've been dealing with. Lots more prayers and positive thoughts are being sent their way.
That sounds like a good update! I hope it's all over for you now! ;)
