Oh dear look at those poor little baby eyes. Tracy I hope everything starts turning around for these little ones soon; It must be very demanding on you (and them) day after day. Healing thoughts and good wishes to you and your Krew.

Poor baby! He looks miserable.. Made my eyes water just to look at those pictures.. Hope they all get better fast. That looks awful!

Thanks everyone. I sure hope that the eye drops and lysine will do the trick. I still haven't heard back from my vet yet. I was able to treat the kittens again this morning with the eye drops. Radar's eyes look pretty good because his just started flaring up yesterday. Unfortunately Radar still has liquid diarrhea. His bottom had some on it and he left many poo pancakes for me this morning. I heard from the kittens foster mom that they're also still having many kittens with the same eye problems. It seems like there's always something going around each year. Years ago when I adopted Starr it was a bad strain of coccidia and also ringworm. Some of my cats will eat the pill like a treat. Pearl, Blaze, Radar, and Rory all ate theirs like a treat. Alani, Storm,Reece, and Sky were very easy to pill and just gulped it down. Colby, Finnegan, & Ziggy were the most difficult. I may just crush up the pill and put it in Colby & Finnegan's canned food. Ziggy won't finish all of her canned food some times so this isn't an option for her. I hope that the next few weeks will go by quickly & smoothly and that this will all be a thing of the past soon.

Oh, no, poor little babies! Breaks my heart to see little Rory's eyes all red, swollen and tearing, hearing of all of the kids' multiple ailments. I do hope that tomorrow your vet can help straighten this all out, get them all a course of treatment, on the road to recovery. You must be overwhelmed! My Tigg was dx with feline herpes shortly after we rescued him, though his eyes never looked quite that bad. He's on lysine (Vetri Lysine Chews) 1 twice daily, for life, and it's well under control. Unfortunately he was also recently diagnosed with severe asthma, and treating him with steroids is problematic as it further depresses the immune system. Hard being a mom...

Lots of love and cuddles to all of those sweet babies, and a big hug to mom! Keeping you all in my thoughts and prayers!

Would Radar eat some plain unsweetened yogurt? I am wondering if the antibiotics killed the 'good' germs in his digestive tract as they often do with humans?

I hope everyone gets better soon!
