    Sorry to read about Herk and Apollo. Sounds like a URI, and they are sharing it back and forth. Will your vet give you more meds w/o seeing them? Just a thought.

    Phoebe will be fine, I think it is harder on us as we know what is going on. And she will recover quickly.

    I had to smile reading your post - our vets just love those of us with multiples! I went through similar in January, in there at least once a week with one or another. The staff joked they were going to reserve a spot in the waiting area just for me.

    Your furkids are well cared for, and this will pass (and your wallet is glad to hear it!).

    Prayers for recovery for Phoebe, Apollo and Herk!

    Freedom:

    Yes I agree I think it's harder on us because we know what they are going to go through. She is actually up for adoption but so far no one has showed any interest, except 1 person and when I reminded them that she maybe a little shy they e-mailed me back and said they would pass.

    Herk got the coughing first and then it developed into this sneezing and Achilles our other cat had the same thing, he's recoverying a bit...but Apollo sounds just like he did last month.

    The vet spoke with me while I was in there this morning dropping off Phoebe and she asked if I brought Apollo back for a recheck and for the second x-ray and I told her no because he was feeling so much better (plus I didn't know they wanted to do another x-ray or I would have kept the appt.).

    I maybe able to get my one other vet to give me some meds for the other 2 and only take in Apollo but I'm just waiting to see if they have anything open up.

    Thank you so much for your kind words,
    Melissa

    I hope that Phoebe's spay goes well. I'm sorry to hear that Apollo and Hercules are sick. I would think that your vet would at least be able to squeeze them in since they are sick. This is what my vet tries to do for me. I hope that they'll be able to be seen by a vet soon and they they'll both recover quickly from their illness. Lots of prayers and positive thoughts are being sent their way.

    Well now Annabelle my other 11 month old has the coughing and another one started sneezing....I'm going to just go nuts I think at this point. Actually I kinda feel like crying just due to other stresses right now but this will pass once the furbabies are feeling better.

    The vet called and Phoebe is done but I can't get her till tomorrow at least I know she made it through just fine.

    Herk has an appt. at my country vet...so I'm hoping she will do just fine for tonight to help him and Apollo will probably go along since I'm super worried about everyone getting whatever this is.

    Aw, sorry about this Melissa. This is why the URI is so often called the kitty cold. It is quite catching from one to another. See if you can get meds for all of them. Won't be easy dosing them, but the best way to get it all cleared out. With 4 of them now, they will just keep passing it back and forth.

    I'm sorry to hear that now Annabelle is getting sick too. I would try to get enough meds for all of your cats. You do need to know how much they weigh though. I went through this when I only had 3 cats and they all got it. Unfortunately my RB Pepper weighed more than the vet thought so he didn't get enough of the meds and he got much worse before he finally got better. Lots more prayers and positive thoughts are being sent their way.

    Also I'm glad to hear that Phoebe's spay went well. I sure hope that she won't end up getting sick now too.
