What a wonderful web page, I'm so glad I found it!
I have two cats, two kids and two dogs. I'm a widow for 8 years and we're a family. I'm 44, my kids are 21 and 16. I work full time as a medical equipment dealer. The dogs are siblings, Spike and Hershey and they're over 5 years old. They have adjusted well to the cats and Mister Sosa loves the dogs, but isn't crazy about Mac yet.
My cats are Mister Sosa, a little over two years old and a new baby, Mac. Mac was Maddie first, but alas, we found out she was a HE! Hmmmmm..... I thought for a she things didn't look quite right. Oh well...
I have had Mac for 2 weeks and he has been sick most of that time. He was barely 6 weeks old when I brought him home. He was limping, running a temp and sleeping most of the time. We saw the vet and found out she was a he and got him started on antibiotics. Two days later, saw the vet again, started a new antibiotic and 5 days later he's doing much better.
But! He now has a cold. We saw the vet again yesterday. His little nose is so stopped up, I've thought about some mild saline nasal spray but will check with the vet before I do anything like that.
I feed both my cats Science Diet. I use adult maintainance for Mister and growth for Mac. I have tempted him with Pro Plan rice/chicken kitten food moistened by water since his illness though. He likes both cat foods. Mister gets about 1/2 cup a day (I keep food out all the time) and Mac has dry left out all the time and gets less then a tablespoon of moist twice a day.
Any suggestions from you would be much appreciated. Again, this is an awesome page and I'm glad Google led me to it.
