When I brought Maui home last Saturday I noticed he had a little bit of a cough. He seemed to cough a little less frequently throughout the day & on Sunday but I still brought him in to the vet on Monday for his first visit & to check on his cough.
The vet said he sounded like he had a very mild upper respatory infection and she perscribed Amoxicillan 2 times a day (1/2 cc or whatever). So on Monday he got just one dose & then he's been on schedule ever since. Well today is Friday and I think his cough is worse! It's not very frequent but when he does cough it's much louder & powerful sounding. He has to go back on Monday to be rechecked on the cough & also to get some shots.
My question is do their coughs usually get a little worse before they get better? Or is this abnormal?
I said cough 8 times- cough, cough, cough! It doesn't even sound like a word to me anymore!
