Hello
Our neighbour's cat somehow got a cold the last weekend. He, comes into our house every so often (he is 16), anyway our neighbour took her cat to the vet who said its just a common cat cold and there is nothing they can really do for it, just do what humans do when we get a cold, rest, drink loads and make sure to eat.
Well, he came into our house, and he passed on his cold to bubbles our oldest cat (6 years old), who we done what the vet told the neighbour. What I should of done was kept my cats apart from healthy ones to the one with the cold as 2 others have colds now. I have 4 cats with an adopted one who is 9. The adopted one, has the cold, my oldest bubbles and now bollo, (who is 5).
I don't want taffy (same litter as bollo) or buttons (3) to get a cold. Thing is bollo and taffy are inseparable. Ideally I wouldn't want any to get a cold.
I phoned my vet and said that they have a cold and they said drink plenty, eat, and rest is best cure. They will only give out anti-biotics if they can't breath.
Luckily they are all breathing as normal just sneezing every so often (more than normal).
Are there any home made remedies that you would suggest? Think I should phone my other vets up? What should I do?
