    I can sympathize with you so much on that.

    Dusty had a weak immune system and always seemed to be sick several times a year requiring me to give her antibiotic injections at home for a week (she wouldn't take anything by mouth). All they really did was keep any secondary infections down since she had to 'run her course' with it. If we didn't get her on antibiotics she would end up with a staph infection in her throat. ewww

    Jack has a basically decent immune system however has been sneezing for the last 2 years. Never has any discharge and it never progresses or goes totally away. We've tried several times with several antibiotics and it's never impacted his sneezing in any way. He's healthy otherwise (other than his unrelated mega colon problem) so we all just live with the sneezing and keep watch for any discharges or other indicators that he needs antibiotics. He doesn't seem like a cat suffering or unhappy about it, eats normally, plays, and is very affectionate.

    Well Claudia has stopped sneezing now which is good but her cough is still there.

    Last night again she woke me up with coughing and she threw up 3 times not much but the first time it was liquid the second time it was food which I thought might have been a hairball but after looking at it better and feeling it (sorry to be gross) there was just food....then the third time it was white foamy stuff.

    I'm going to be calling a different vet today and see if I can get her in. I was really hoping that if I let her go a little longer she would be good but I didn't get any sleep really last night because I was up with her 4 times and man I'm tired.

    Money is such an issue but I'm hoping this vet will work with me on it.

    Well I took Claudia to the vets and the vet put her on the same meds Ashley was on for her cough and hopefully this will settle it down.

    The vet said she wants an update in 4 days and if Claudia is not better she will need to do some blood tests then.

    We'll see what happens, she had her first dose today so hopefully tonight we will both get a full night of sleep.

    Thank you all for your prays and thoughts.

    Melissa & Claudia

    Well it's been 3 days of meds now...early this afternoon Claudia had 1 coughing fit and so far nothing else. She just got her 3rd dose tonight so I'm hoping that she will be better soon.

    Thank you all for your prays.
