Kim, I am so glad you emailed me about the URI plague!!!! I have been too busy to follow Pet Talk of late and hadn't seen your posting. And you know I love Tucker and your furrkids!!! As I told you in the email, we had a URI go through our Pride in Jan/Feb...scared me to death. It wasn't as bad as what you are experiencing; however, we just had everyone on antibiotics.

I had to use a syringe to give water to some of them that wouldn't drink - they can't argue when water shoots into their mouths. A few had high temps, but only Chauncey (19 this week) really got bad to the point where we had to put him on a kitty decongestant. He could NOT breath, so couldn't eat...

You are such a God send for all those rescues...and I certainly will now follow this post and will of course pray for all to recover. You've had some wonderful support from this group - aren't cat people just the best????

Kim, you are so supportive of everyone else - I don't know how you had time with all of this tomake the beautifull birthday card you did for Chauncey, but I am going to keep it on his web page furrrrever!!!

Love to your babies from the Pride
