    I hope all are continuing to improve and that no one else, cat or human, gets sick!

    Thanks Elyse & Anne. I took both Reece & Rory to see my vet on Sunday. By then both of their eyes were goopie. Their temps were normal and they're still eating, drinking, and playing. Since the meds before seemed to only irritate Rory's eyes, my vet said to just use a moisterizing eye drop like refresh tears. They only have mild URI's and she also said that antibiotics wouldn't help because it's a virus not an infection. They're already fully vaccinated so we just have to let it run it's course. I'm also applying a warm compress several times a day to help to clean the gunk out of their eyes. They seem to be looking a bit better.

    Radar is still on his antibiotics and it's been causing him to have diarrhea. Some times he steps in it and then gets it all over himself. I think he has one or two days left on the medicine so I hope that soon after he stops that he'll get back to normal again. My vet also said that he most likely started out with a URI and then some how developed a secondary bacterial infection. This morning Sky's right eye is very squinty & goopy. He's been hanging out with the kittens too much. So far the rest of my cats are fine. I hope that all of this will clear up quickly.

    Here's hoping and praying that all your babies' eye troubles are over soon and they are back to normal. They are all so lucky to have such a good Meowmie who takes such good care of them!

    Death thought about it.
    CATS, he said eventually. CATS ARE NICE.
