    I'm sorry to hear that Bo has a very nasty bacteria infection but at least it can be treated and hopefully it'll go away in time. Lots of prayers and positive thoughts are being sent her way.

    Did your vet say what may have caused this infection? I know that she's an indoor only cat. Maybe she has a compromised immune system since she's been battling infections for many years now.

    That's exactly his feeling on this. As you remember Bo was born feral and lived in the park several years before she decided she wanted to come home with us. They feel her immune system is just too weak to totally fight this off. Hopefully we can control it enough for her to live a long life in somewhat comfort.

    Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) is a full management plan in which stray and feral cats already living outdoors in cities, towns, and rural areas are humanely trapped, then evaluated, vaccinated, and sterilized by veterinarians. Kittens and tame cats are adopted into good homes. Healthy adult cats too wild to be adopted are returned to their familiar habitat under the lifelong care of volunteers

    She is so beautiful! I hope she can be helped to fight this and enjoy her life, once again.
    Proud to be a crazy cat lady!

    Bo is beginning to sneeze frequently again. I relayed this to our vet and he said to continue the antibiotics until finished. She's not as bad but I sure don't want it to get to that point again.

    When it rains it pours. We had quite a stretch without anything wrong with the group.

    I can definitely relate. The Fur Posse goes for several months and we have good health and peace and then suddenly all fur breaks loose, usually on a weekend or holiday (like now), too. I'm sorry that Bo isn't feeling well. I hope things straighten out for you soon. It's so worrisome.
    Blessings,
    Mary
