My name is Princess. Just 2 weeks ago my new mom rescued me from the NY kitty death row and saved me by a matter of hours! She is kind of old so her nice daughter and son-in-law traveled from MA to NY in the midst of an ice storm and while they were at the NYC ACC getting me, they saved a cat also within hours of his life being taken! I came home with I guess you would say herpes virus and on antibiotics. My mommy thought I would not make it. I was breathing mouth opened, sticky eyes, 105 temp blocked and runny nose, lethargic and sort of skinny too. Mom slept in her chair for 3 days with me in my new pink blanket. One day she put me on L Lysine and within a day or two I did a great turn around. I still sneeze with a stuffy nose but wow, I am a wild streak running around the apt. now.
Only problem is my new sister is 10 yrs old, has arthritis and is of a feral mom and acts feral herself. She is now very sick with my herpes virus and the same symptoms. So my mom now has her to care for and she is tricky as she is not the friendliest though she loves mom. Mom has just a day or two ago started her on L Lysine which she "thinks" may be helping a bit to keep her from worsening too much. Mom watches our food and water intake and our litter work pretty closely as she says that can be a main concern. We are all struggling here but thank goodness our human mom loves us so much. We wonder how long we can stay on the L Lysine without it causing any problems, anyone have any idea?? Meow and thank you! Mia and Princess (and mom)
