    Now it's my senior Boo's turn to be sick; update; 12/14; post 16

    Honestly, I feel like I'm running an emergency room here. Poor Boo had a sneezing fit yesterday; I didn't think too much of it b/c they all do that on occasion. Then later it happened again. And again. And again. Now his eyes are runny, too. So I have some Clavamox pills on hand that I had to discontinue giving to Yodie and I started him on it last night. I wanted him to sleep w/me last night so he'd be nice and warm and snuggly but he didn't stay long. He went downstairs and slept on the sofa. How in the world do they catch colds anyhow? They're never outdoors, never exposed to other cats. I don't get it. Hopefully, the Clavamox will start working right away but, if not, it's off to Dr. Lee. Boo is 18 and I can't take any chances w/him so if you can spare a prayer for my blackie boy, I'd appreciate it.

    We are so sorry to hear the Big Boos under the weather.
    Its so sad and depressing when our Pet Companions are ill, and even a bit scary when they are Seniors!!!

    We are praying that Boos all well and will be in line for her share of the Turkey, Dressing and Gravy PetMas Day.

    Mary, I'm so sorry to hear this. I can relate because it seems like there's always something wrong with at least one of my cats. My indoor only cats have also gotten sick before but it was because one of my other cats had been to the vet and they must've brought it home with them. Maybe that's what happened in Boo's case. I hope he'll feel better soon. Prayers and positive thoughts are being sent his way.

    I'm sending up prayers for Boo. It is always so stressful when our furkids don't feel well. You have had more than your share of this lately. Hang in there!
    Proud to be a crazy cat lady!

    Prayers and good wishes for Boo. I hope the Clavamox is helping.

    Death thought about it.
    CATS, he said eventually. CATS ARE NICE.
