Hello all.

Its been a very busy and not so pleasant week or so here. Moosey was brilliant after his op, but just 36hrs after his anti-biotics had stopped he started sneezing! Within 24hrs, overnight really, he was a very poorly Cat with laboured breathing, nasal and eye discharge and a very crackly chest which you could hear!:shock: The Vet said its not uncommon for Cats to develop such things when their immune system had been supressed, as in the anesthetic, but poor Moosey was a very sick Cat. Thankfully he responded well to the various drugs and within 2 days was well on the mend. So then Rowan thought he'd join in...........then Scooter, then Wiggy!!!:roll: So 4 Cats on anti-biotics, but are all doing fine i think, Moosey and Rowan are back to normal, in fact Moosey is just bursting with energy now his teeth dont hinder him, Id forgotten how naughty he was!:-D

I hope that Jessie and Schnapps dont come down with it, being elderly ladies, so far so good. I have never ever had a cat with a virus type thing, I suppose its like Kennel Cough in dogs, one gets it then another? Anyway, ill get round to a pic of the Moosey as I said for you, if I can catch him!! :-D

Sorry to hear that the virus has been making the rounds, Dawn. Hope the oldies won't get it, and that everyone will be well for Christmas. And a Merry Christmas to you and yours!

Oh dear, sorry to hear your babies haven't been well :(
Four cats on AB's must have been a challenge! Glad they're on the mend now though.
Can't wait to see pictures!

Glad they're all on the mend Dawn. It must have been a real worry for you. I hope the two oldies stay clear of whatever has been bugging their others.
