Yesterday she was the same. Still not wanting to eat, although she sniffed the food a couple of times. She's obviously uncomfortable, and yet she's still fighting this thing. The vet said that she's been up and meowing on a couple of occasions, and he was encouraged by that. He's going to try yet another antibiotic.

She may have an intestinal disturbance in addition to the respiratory problems--she's got a lot of gas and has vomited a couple of times. I left a message for the vet this morning to tell him that one of my other cats (Gatsby) is showing signs of an intestinal bug, although neither he nor anybody else is having respiratory issues.

I hope poor Gatsby doesn't get a bad case of whatever this is. He's already on antibotics because of his ongoing URI problem, but starting yesterday he hasn't eaten as much as usual, he's thrown up twice, and he's had one bout of nasty diarrhea. Despite that, he's acting like his usual affectionate self, so I'm not frantic yet. If he's not over it by tomorrow, off he goes to the clinic where Kiri's hospitalized to see whether they can figure this out.
