Re: Sneezing dilema


Better safe than sorry. It does sound like an allergy, but you never know. Leia had a sneezing spell at breakfast: sneezed rapidly about 10 times, then finished eating, had a wash-up and is now napping, but I'm keeping an eye on her nonetheless.

Re: Sneezing dilema


Well we are back from the vets and I am so glad that I took him, it turns out that he has via cross contamination managed to pick up Cat flu from "PG" the little kitten that the girls have. "PG" started with the symptoms the day after Newyears Day and she was on antibiotics to clear it up.
Even though I was careful washing down and changing clothes before coming home it looks like I must have fetched it home with me .
I asked the vet how can he get it when he is vaccinated, and he said that they can still pick it up but it isn`t as serious as when they are not vaccinated, so he is now on antibiotics to clear it up. .
Have been told to keep my eye on Maisy to make sure she dosen`t start showing any signs of it, so fingers crossed she dosen`t.

What a good thing you are an alert mummy, Leesy. He should get better very soon as you acted so promptly.

Get well very soon Maxi!

Poor Maxi, but well done you and catching it that soon; hope Maisy will be spared. No, Leia hasn't sneezed any more and seems just fine.

Re: Sneezing dilema


Thank you, Maxi has gone of sulking after I gave him his antibiotic tab and put his eye ointment in, mind you I had to break the tab in half to give it to him as it is a big one, the vet said normaly it would just be half a tablet if he was under 5 kilo but as he weighs 6.7 kilo he has to have a full one

Re: Sneezing dilema


Poor lambkin .......... not only does extra weight make your jeans tight but you have to take the whole pill rather than half the pill!!! Whichever way you look at it, you gotta be thin!
