Thanks again everyone. My little redhead is now home. My vet called me at work around 11:30am and she diagnosed him with a laryngeal infection. I had a feeling that whatever was going on involved something with his throat. She said he was running a low grade fever and when she did bloodwork on him his white blood cell count was also elevated which indicates that an infection is going on. She had also done another x-ray for a progress check and an abdominal ultrasound to rule out any obstructions. Luckliy he didn't have any.

He's now on sub-q fluids every day for the next 7 days which I'll do at home along with Baytril injections for the next 6 days and Cerenia injections for the next 2 days. I can inject these into the port line while giving him 50ml of sub-q fluids daily. I start tomorrow morning and I hope that he'll be a good boy and cooperate. He also needs to stay in my hall bathroom by himself for the next two days so that I can monitor his intake and outake. So far he's doing well in there so I hope that he'll continue to be good in there too. He goes back for a recheck on Tues. Jan.31st at 8:30am.

I asked my vet how he could've gotten this kind of infection and she said that sometimes fleas carry it but she knows that none of my cats have fleas and I treat them with advantage once a month for them. She also said that sometimes stress can cause it because then his immune system would become weaker. I went to a cat show a few weeks ago and I still wonder if I may have brought something home with me. They tried to feed Blaze at the hospital but he wouldn't eat. When we got home I gave him some dry food and he ate all of it without any problems. He's still gagging sometimes though and I hope that this will go away in few days. I noticed that Alani was coughing a little bit so I have to keep an eye on him. My vet said that this kind of infection isn't contagious and I sure hope that this it true. My vet bill wasn't as bad as I had thought it would be but it was still a fairly good amount. Now I just want all of my cats to remain happy and healthy for a long time to come.
