Hope all goes well at the vet and it's nothing serious.

Awww. Poor Hanky, I will be praying for you and hope everything is ok.

Yes, please let us know!! Lil Hank is my new wallpaper on my computer and I want him happy & healthy...............

Sounds like little Hank is getting all the "normal" kitty crud! I'm sure the vet will give him some medicine and he'll be feeling better in a few days!
Huggies for little Hank!

There will be Pet Angels with Hank all the way, and they will comfort him, and give Hank moral support.
The Found Cats and I are adding our prayers that Hank is well.

The vet was a very nice lady and Hank was SO well behaved!
He just sat there will no fussing (other then when they took his temp. but I would be uncomfotable too)

She did a full eye examination and put freezing in his eyes , some brown stainer and then some lime green stuff wich made his nose go green and his tounge. Wich she said was good. She said he has upper respratory disease Wich will stick with him all his life.

He also had his rabies shot and second kitten shot. He didnt even meow or flinch. Such a brave boy.

Hes got some eye drops now to help clear this up.
My poor boy.

I'm glad that you took him to the vet but I'm sorry to hear that he's sick. I don't understand why the vet said that he'll have this URI for life. I'm also very confused that the vet would give him his rabies and second booster shot if he was sick. I've always been told that if animals are sick then they shouldn't get their shots until they're healthy again.Am I wrong about this? I'm very confused here.

I sure hope that Hank will get better soon.

Poor Hanky. At least it's treatable, though!

Yes thats right but he wasnt that sick to not have them. She said if he was too sick she wouldnt have give him them. But since he wasnt sneezing or showing any other signs of URI she said he wasnt too sick just his eyes were being effected.

She said the URI stays with him his whole life and shows up every so often. She said most kittens from shelters have it
