I hope Finnegan doesn't get it. Geez...

Thoughts and prayers going out to you and your crew. Hope Jimmy is doing better as well. How are the two new kitties doing??
Thanks Jenn.
Finnigan hasn't coughed since that one time so I think it was just him eating too fast. Phew! I called the vet but she wasn't in so I spoke to a different one. She asked what the dose was for Muddy and seemed surprised that he was only getting 1/2 a 5mg tab twice a day. She said there was alot of room to increase the dose and she increased it to 1 tab twice a day. I picked up a two week prescription so hopefully this will knock this cough out!

Jimmy is doing really well. Thanks for asking about him. His belly is still bald from the ultrasound and looks like trout skin, it is so cute. He is on a 2 week treatment of Metronidazole which he hates but he is so frisky and happy lately, it is all worth it. I haven't given him anything but Gastro dry food and Hypo Gastro wet food. It's very bland but he is like a different cat, I'm so grateful.

The new guys are fabulous. Wallace is very shy but we're working on it. I wish I knew more about his injuries from the raccoon attack he suffered before he was surrendered to the SPCA. I think he has some nerve damage because he walks a little funny. He's very slow moving sometimes and almost seems traumatized. I'm going to see if I can get his vet records and once I get through the Muddy/Jimmy health issues, he will be next to the vet.

You probably didn't see my p.s. at the bottom of my post in the thread about Splinter but I'm a huge Indigo Girls fan. Love the new addition to your siggy
