Hi
I have one remaining cat, Bob, who is 15.5 years old. His brother Vic was put down on friday due to a respiratory infection as the vet said he had other underlying health issues. I dashed Bob to the vets yesterday and he was given an injection of antiinflammatories (bad tooth), fluids and antibiotics as he had a temperature. They also did blood tests which I should hopefully get the results of today. He is very quiet in himself. He had his vaccinations Friday night. I was told he is about 400g underweight. I have swapped him back onto wet food and am feeding him on his own in case the dog is wolfing down Bob's food. He is walking around ok but is sleeping a lot. They said his breathing was fine but his heart was a bit fast yesterday at the vets. He is eating and drinking plenty (even voluntarily drinking the rehydration water stuff, yesterday I fed him some down a syringe. )
I am very worried, don't want to lose my little 3 legged ball of fluff too. Any help would be gratefully received.
Many thanks
Debbie
