Dropped Phoebe off @ vets this morning spay, Apollo & Herk sick at home..

Yep, URI's are the never ending illness, it seems, b/c they pass it all around. Such generosity we can do w/o, eh? I'm sorry that your kitties have the sickies, Melissa. We feel so bad for them but they do get better and back to their old selves. It just takes a little time. I'm also glad that Phoebe came through her spay just fine, as I knew she would. We do worry when we have to put them under, though, so I totally understand. Soon all of this will be but a memory.

Thank you all for the well wishes, Phoebe will be coming home soon but she will be away from everyone else just to make sure she doesn't catch this bug.

I had Herk and Apollo at the vets last night. Apollo was checked out first, she took his temperature at it was 102.2 which is good because we thought he was really sick. Anyway, she listened to him and made him cough which was rough for him and she said he could be brewing a cold but she thinks he may have the starting signs of asthma. She said that with him being diagnosed last month as bronchitis that it maybe from his lungs. So she gave him a 5 day course of antibotic just to make sure if he is catching anything it will be covered. She also gave him a steriod shot for his cough and said that it should last about 48 hours so we are watching to see if this will help his cough and if it does then we pretty much know he has asthma.

Now onto Herk, he had a temperature of 104.4, I couldn't believe it, I felt so horrible for not taking him sooner. The vet gave him some antibotic and by later in the night he was feeling a little better. He will be on that for the next 2 days. Last night they both got some can food and this morning as well. I also bought two more strips of clavamox incase the others get sick so I don't have to take them in.

If you all would continue the prays I'd appreciate it for them.

Thanks!

I'm glad to see Phoebe came through the spay fine. Good that you keep her separated from the others. I hope Annabelle, Herk and Apollo will feel better very soon!

Lots of positive thoughts to them all!

Hi Cassiesmom-

Hercules is doing very well, getting pills in him are a little tough but we are managing to do it and that's what's important. He was running around this morning playing, I was so happy to see that.

Apollo is getting better, although I watched him again this morning while he was eatting and he did the cough thing, not as loud so I'll keep an eye on him for sure.

Phoebe is acting like nothing has happened to her, I couldn't believe how small the incision was. When I've had others done at this country vet she cuts a good inch or so and stitches them back up with the inside side sticking somewhat outside but this vet had a very small cut and it looks almost normal.

I'll see if I can get a picture of it, it's just amazing at how good it looks and she seems to be doing very well which I'm so glad.

Thanks for asking!
Melissa

Sounds like it might have been lasered. It's so much easier on them but it's more expensive. I'm glad to read that everyone is doing better.

That is so good that everyone is coming along just fine..
