Jack gave me a huge scare!!!!!

[Edwina's Secretary]

Oh my gosh! I thought Edwina was the only one! Last winter she developed a sneeze and a watery eye. I watched it closely but she seemed to get better.

Then I started finding speckles of blood where she would sleep. Bloody mucus. But otherwise she seemed find. But her sneeze was an odd one. I am imitating it but you probably can't hear me.. Much more through her nose than normal. And this went on occasionally for some time.

One day she came to me and started her wierd sneezing and .....a blade of grass came out!

I was VERY relieved and told her that is what she gets for sticking her nose where it doesn't belong!

Silly kitties! Glad Jack is grassless again.

oh Jack, you did give your mom a scare! I know I would be quite worried and upset if that happened here, as well. I am glad you cleared that out!

[jenluckenbach]

[kimlovescats]

Wow that would scare me to death too! I'm glad the vet gave you some antibiotics to keep out any infection the grass may have caused and I'm very glad to hear you got the offending grass blade out and the sneezing stopped!!

oh my goodness, yikes! so relieved you have saw the green part - I never knew that! ..poor jack boy and you! I'm happy both of you are okay now.

((hugs to both)).

Poor Jack. I'm glad that the piece of grass came out and that he's now on meds to help with his infection. I hope he feels better soon and heals up quickly.

My old vet had mentioned this to me when one of my cats was sneezing a lot. I guess the grass up the nose is fairly common in cats. When I buy wheat grass I make sure to cut it into smaller pieces so that this won't happen.
