- About a month ago Grey Kitty had a cold. He was sneezing regularly and hus
- eyes and nose were all goopy (and those were the exact terms I used at
- the vet, too!! :) He went to the vet for a check-up and he prescribed
- amoxicillin. Turns out the little guy ha da respiratory infection.
-
- Because of the infection, Grey Kitty hd to wait three weeks before
- he could get his rabies shot and distemper stuff. If your cat is sick,
- they might be able to ride it out, just like people. Just be careful
- in the event that your cat is due for a shot or surgery. Our other
- cat was supposed to get spayed to day, but I heard her sneeze a couple
- times last week and freaked out. I'm planning on waiting another week
- to make sure that she is doing ok.
