Aw, poor baby, I hope she feels better soon. Prayers for you both. You are really going through it right now.

Thank you, MoFF!

Poppaea was still wheezing quite loudly this morning when I got her out to give her some food and her Azithromycin and her sub-q fluids.. Another call in to the vet...

I'm so sorry to hear this. I hope she'll start feeling better soon. Lots of prayers and positive thoughts are being sent her way.

Eucalyptus steam, I say! Love to you both!

Thanks, Tracey and Karen.

Oh, I did give her a steam session this morning! And I'm about to give her another. How do I mix in eucalyptus with it?

This afternoon she hasn't been so noticeably wheezy. When I pick her up and listen to her chest, I can hear it, but not at any distance from her.

This morning, I picked her up out of her condo and brought her into the bathroom to give her her first dose of food (wet Purina NF with some Purelax [CVS generic Miralax] mixed in) and then her dose of Azithromycin and then her sub-q fluids, which was probably enough upset to start her wheezing audibly.

The vet agrees with me on this. He thinks the medication is working; it just takes a little longer than I'd thought, or been hoping. He said to update him again on Wednesday.

Please keep the prayers and good wishes coming! Thanks from Poppaea and me.
