Sky Will Be Going To The Vet On Fri. Unless He Gets Worse

[Freedom]

Hi Sky, take a wee rest, and let the white coats help you feel better quickly tomorrow! Prayers for Sky from RI.

Vita gets URIs almost constantly. We are lucky to go 6 weeks between bouts. No FIV /FeLV, just a herpes virus that likes residing in her body.

Until you can get Sky in to the vet, squirt some saline nasal spray in his nose. It's inexpensive and you can get it at any pharmacy or even a discount store. When my Pidge got that sneezing jag several months ago, she sneezed so hard and often that she got a nose bleed. After a vet visit, my dr. told me about saline nasal spray and it really helped. It will soothe the nasal passages and also decrease the amount of sneezing. Good luck and I hope you come home w/a good report.

Oh poor little Sky. I do hope it's something simple that will clear soon, but perhaps it's a good idea to try what Medusa suggested, that sounds like it might help until he can see a vet.

Lots of positive thoughts for Sky - and for a good cat mom! You are, you know!

Thanks everyone. Sky is actually doing better today. He's still stuffy and I can hear him breathing because he makes squeeky noises but I haven't heard him sneezing at all today. He'd be a very hard cat to try to put drops in his nose. I guess I'd have to put him in the restraint bag that I have with just his head sticking out. Watch him be almost over this by tomorrow and then the vet will think that I'm crazy for bringing him in. Isn't that the way it always goes?

Last night Sunny gave me a scare because he was trying to throw something up and I just thought it was hairball so I gave him some hairball medicine. Later on I saw that one of the cats threw up in the kitchen and on a scratching post. It looked like it was a bunch of wet food. It must have been Sunny because he refused to eat anything last night and he just wanted to go hide and curl up and go to bed. I don't give Sunny very much wet food because he eats it too fast and then he'll throw it back up so I don't know how he got all of this into his system.

I didn't get much sleep last night becasue I was now also worried about Sunny. He started bugging me for food and attention at about 6:30am and I was so happy to have my Sunny back. I guess his tummy was just bothering him last night because he's now able to eat and is back to normal again.

I'll keep you updated about Sky. Thanks again.
