Thanks so much for your response. he seems to be pretty healthy otherwise. We live in an outlying area, so going to the vet isn't always practial for us or the kids.So you can imagine that we do alot of "Home Remedies". Over the counter items are all that we are left with sometimes.However ,in this case, Harmon will need to go "down the hill". He will need to get his vacs anyway.
God bless you on your advocation of adoption of older cats! I've adopted 2 (one 10 the other7) and they were the best ! Niether of them are with us anymore,but they were the most appriciative,loving animals I've ever had the pl;easure of meeting.The 10 year old one(Ludie) lived to the ripe old age of 21!Well anyway, it's off to the vet! Thanks again.
