Poor old Splitz, she has had another 2 injections   :(
She is going back tomorrow for another one, as one of them only lasts 24hrs.
She wasnt so naughty today, mick held her, so he got the claws & bitten  :naughty:
and the poor nurse still had her finger bandaged up off her the last time.

Others have tablets twice a day to keep fighting the infection, but have problems giving Splitz tablets.

He said he is sure its cat flu, as they all have upper respiratory infections.
And nothing bad come back from Pods blood tests, just the count of white cells were high indicating he was fighting a bad infection.
He has been lucky to pull a bit strength back because he was going to be put on a drip.
Splitz is back at the vet today at 4.10pm as really worried as she looking like she is going back down hill, and she refuses to eat or drink now.

I am worried sick, she is an old girl now & doesnt seem to be fighting it like the others.

What ever it takes, i will give it a go, to pull them all back to strengh.

They are our whole world  :'( :'( :'(

Vet said its is likely that they have picked it up from the stray.

Last time i seen the stray it looked poorly, his eyes seemed watery and dull.. I have been given a number for the local CPL,
as this cat needs to be caught.
But funny thing is, its not been back this week, and it used to be around everyday or evening.
because i would get mine in as Pod & Rolo used to chase it.

Pod has had a better sleep tonight, splitz is on our bed, will be keepin close eye on her.
Her age is worrying bein so poorly, she's 14  :'( cant get her to eat or drink since she has come back from the vet.
But keep wetting her lips so she licks them.

Thank you all again for all your vibes  :grouphug:

Sounds like POD is slowly turning round and your vet must love yours  :rofl:

I am pleased they have all now had the same treatment and does sound that the other cat has passed something on.....what does your vet say?

Lots of good vibes for all of then overnight and tomorrow  :hug: :hug:

Thank you for all you positive vibes  :hug:

Pod has been back to the vet tonight. He has had another injection and ihe is also going to be stating the other antibiotics
as an extra boost. He was very reluctant to go back in the carrier so decided he'd draw micks blood  :naughty:
But back home he ate some chicken and had a drink of milk. He seems more relaxed and has started licking his lips and washing
his paws. Still a long way to go.

Splitz was also at the vet, she has now  :'(  She has had the treatment they all got.

BUT.... the vet got her second injetion and claws ripped into him, the vet nurse got the claws & her blood was dripping. Mick also got it,
and she decided to bite me. You just know what splitz thinks of vets.

All still under constant watch, scared to leave them in the house alone, so mick been in all the time
and still sleeping downstairs.
Thanks for all your vibes XXX

TINA could you find a cardboard box and put it some where quiet for him to go in, of course with his blanket or bedding inside but leave it side way so he doesn't need to jump, he can just go in and hide. From my experience with Phoebe some times when not well they like dark and quiet places. x

Hi, Pod still very poorly. We are watching him constantly, and making sure he has food & fluids.
I went back to work today, but mick slept on the settee & is off work to keep close eye on him.
Pod keeps going & hiding inside the litter box (clean litter) so not sure if its because he wants to be in
a dark place, so have closed the blinds to keep bright light out.
He is still slavering, and seems to be fighting his sleep. He just keeps sittin in the mud as we call it (front legs folded in)
I am just prayin for him to bounce back to his "Pod the Sod" naughtyness.

Rolo seems to have shook it off quickly, like Flora did. They both have pestered Mick all day to play out, but they are not allowed.

Keeping close eye on Splitz, but so far she is ok (fingers crossed) but if she does look unwell, the vet will see her straight away.

So please keep sending your vibes here,
Thank you XX
