Laura - thanks for the concern.

Yes, I have and they all say what the vets have said - tough going and no magic bullet. I did find out that the nasal drops can have irritated the septum and that can cause small nose bleeds - so, no more nasal drops. I'm doing everything that everyone has told me to do. A few vet sites have said they administer prednisone and B12 shots, though there's always lots of controversy about the pred. The vet did give Nougat B12 several weeks ago when she had a calici virus cold but he didn't mention it for the kittens - perhaps they are just too young. Kittens are both more vulnerable because the cold is harder on them and because they can't be hit as hard with drugs.

I hardly dare say it, almost like I'm making it true, but now Ashley seems to be getting worse also.

I must remember that they are both tough cats that fight like mad when they are cocooned for treatment, so I've just got to keep up my end of the fight and hope.

It's good to be able to come here and worry everyone else as well as me. I just realized that my car is still parked on the street because when I got home from the vet all I could think of was getting on PT.
