Hi, this stray cat had babies about 5 days ago at my house. She's got a respiratory infection. Can I give her antibiotics?

First, please don't do the diagnosis yourself nor prescribe antibiotics on your own...at the same time, something has to be done quickly because these kittens will surely come down with the same thing.

I realize she is a stray...is there any way you can get her and the kittens to a Vet? That really is a must and add ASAP in there!

If you cannot do this yourself, can you contact an animal rescue group in your area...quickly?
