THis is an interesting thread. One month ago today I found a kitten while bike riding. I brought her home and separated her from my two adult cats. I took her to the vet on Monday (I had found her on a Friday eve.), and after she checked out I kept her away from my cats for 2 more weeks. She has been having a hard time shaking a infection that causes sneezing and very runny eyes - 3 different eye drops + antibiotics and we're still working on it.

Then Saturday night, she was playing with one of my older cats (my vet had OK'd letting her mingle) and my old guy Bo shook her off and was shaking his head and blinking - I figured the kitten had nicked him in the eye - I looked, but didn't see anything. He seemed to be fine later and on Sunday he slept most of the day (not unusual - he's 13 years old) under the covers of my bed. When he came out to eat on Sunday night, I was shocked! His eye was pink, watery and he was having trouble opening it up. Just the one eye. So this AM I took him to my vet, they did a dye test but no scratch showed up. He also had a slight fever. I was given some ointment and some antibiotics.

If this is catchy, I have one more cat to be worried about - anti social, stuck-up, would rather hang with the dogs - Abby. I hope she doesn't catch anything.
