Thanks for the advice. Bugs unfortunately is not better yet, so I will be on the phone to the vet in the morning first thing. She seems to have stopped coughing and her swallowing is not too bad now. However she has a very bunged up nose (she keeps blowing bubbles), is sneezing quite a bit and has a slightly runny eye. She seems to be breathing more through her mouth.
Luckily she loves her food and is still eating, she had some salmon this morning and I tried her on some chicken yesterday, but she was not too keen. We give them treats at night time and she still gobbles them up. She is also drinking as normal. I did notice tonight that she tried to go for a number two in her tray and she only managed a little one, so I will keep an eye on that.
The tablets she was on were Ronaxan 2 tablets per day. She has finished them now. We have struggled to give them to her, we tried popping them in her mouth and squirt a little water down to help her swallow them, but she is such a fidget and it seemed to stress her out. We then tried them in food, but she would not touch it (so she has missed one dose). Finally what we had to do was dissolve them in a little milk, as she loves it and get it into a syringe and squirt it in her mouth. This worked, but I am concerned that she has not really been getting all of the dose. I will speak to my vet and see if there is any other alternative.
I have also done the bathroom steam bit a few times over the weekend. I hate seeing her like this. I hope she gets better soon. Any further suggestions, if anyone has any would be welcomed.
