Sneezing 8 week kitty

i am fostering two kittens. Will be eight weeks old this week. I have had them for 4 weeks. The boy came to me sneezing. Seemed ok... eating, playing etc..Last Saturday night/ Sunday he stopped playing and seemed not well. I took him to emergency vet and he had 104 temp. They kept him over night zed gave him antibiotics and fluids. After 24 hours I was able to bring him home and am continuing to give him antibiotics twice a day for 7 days. My concern is that he is still sneezing. Is this to be expected? He is eating very well and playing like crazy.. He seems fine except for continuing to sneeze. I

Sounds like inherited herpesvirus from momma cat.

It's the most commonly seen uri.

Nicknamed because it's basically for life. Kittens usually have frequent sneezing/runny eyes at times but as their systems mature they seem to get it under control well, and will only have mild flare-ups in times of stress.

Just continue the antibiotics as directed, the sneezing may be on and off for months even.

Should this be a concern? My cats have been totally separate from the fosters but the girl who will adopting them does have a cat.

As long as cats exposed have been vaccinated they will be fine.

Herpesvirus is actually the "R" in cat's FVRCP vaccine.

R stands for rhinotracheitis. 

Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis, Calicivirus, Panleukopenia. 

Calici is the 2nd most common uri in cats, and panleukopenia is the cat version of puppy parvo.

Once a kitten has had at least 2 consecutive kitten vaccines, they should get another at 1 year.

At that point they are pretty much fully protected for life in my opinion and UC Davis's as well, although the info online and from vets still is an FVRCP vaccine given every 3 years.

Hopefully someday they will realize over-vaccinating is unnecessary and possibly even a hazard.

Thank you so much!  My cats are up to date on vaccines (even though they have had no contact) and I will make sure the adopter's cat is also up to date.
