Mommy and I are deeply and truly saddened by Russell, of William of Mass Destruction and Tillie's passing. TOO many of our dearest furriends are flying away despite our families begging them to please not, to stay a little longer. Love and comfort and warms hugs to their families. Mom said she sure knows how they feel as do all the pawrents. Our pawrents love us like the fur babies we are. And we love our pawrents right back just as much.
Kitties, I am home still. Mommy was heartened that I got into bed and slept up against her pajamaed tummy. I stayed till she had to answer the alarm and get up for Brovver at 0130. When she got back I had gone elsewhere but eventually I came back to her.
I am sneezy, one eye running and my nose is running like a wee faucet. That's why I am licking my lips, mom thinks. My nose is congested. Mom took your advice and went out and bought a humidifier. Instead of my thick comfy bed I am in my PTU presently but both bed and PTU are in this computer room so mommy has it running in here.
She called the Vet and drilled and grilled him. He swears on his Terrier's head that this is all allergy! I know my mom thinks a cat cold. Mom told him what she'd read about colds and cat herpes too and he again swore that I had neither. Mom says a cold...he says allergies in the worst way. But if I am not better, back I go after a few days. If I am holding my own..brovver has a very important appt. Monday to keep with his surgeon. If need be I will go in Monday later but mom somehow thinks now that I am home and have her to bury into, I will get better. I DID eat supper, a decent one too, and I drank pretty often.
This morning, I came in all wheezy and snuffly but I did a good job on my stinky goodness and I was having a fresh drink of water right after mom laid it down while still in the bathroom. (I have two watering holes).
I had lunch too, Kitties! Pretty decent amount. I made one pee over night..a big one, and one poo. Whew.
So, now I wait with my humidifier and hope I eat and drink and cod knows I am resting!!! I had my tail up once. The rest of the time it's down but mom said she saw it sailing proudly once...cutting the air as I made it into the living room.
xxoo

Oh Miss Katie, it makes me so sad that you are feeling tough. I hope brother is feeling a bit better. I am sending hugs to you all. xx
I am purring hard that you get better, Katie, and that you do not have to go back to the vet.
So glad and relieved that you are feeling a little better, Katie. I hope you can get this allergy/cold issue resolved soon.
Glad to read that you have both peed and pooped :)
Glad to read that you are eating too :)
Sure hope your runny nose will be good soon !
XOXO
I hope you get better each day.
XO,
JC and The Purr and Fur Gang
Miss Katie we are so happy that you have eaten and drank and well done the other things too. All of that is great news. We are sorry you are still feeling puny. But we have high hopes that you will be feeling better soon. We will continue to purr and we are deeply sadden by the recent losses of Tillie, Russell and now today I just saw MamaCat over at Disciplines of Otis. It is too much loss. Time to close the Bridge for repairs.
((hugs))
xoxoxo
Purring and praying!!!
Get well!
We're glad there's signs that you are feeling better Katie! We sure hope the allergies/cold goes away soon! We're sending you and your brovver healing purrs and your mom lots of hugs!
Aw Katie, poor darling girl. Sounds like you are feeling better at home, still really crappy, but a tiny bit better? We hope you keep going in that direction and get better and better! Purring for you sweetie! And for brother!
Oh sweetie, I'm purring for you for all I'm worth and M has you in her prayers. It sounds like you are doing a tad better, and that is good to hear. But we'll keep purring and purraying and for brover too.
Oh Honey, we sure hope you keep getting better and brother too!!! Keep warm and always know...Mom is always there for her babies!!!
Purrs & Hugs to all of you...
Sounds like you're on the mend, pretty Miss Katie! This makes all of us in the Catrulers household furry happy.
M says your Mommy should stick to her guns on the issue of allergies versus rhino virus (cold). She says she knows it's hard to push back and that energy for doing so can sometimes be in short supply.
Your Mommy loves you and will do whatever needs doing to make you better. Hugs, sweet sisfur.
Hi Katie, hope you get rid of your cold or alergies soon. Also hope your brovver is better and can go on with his life without problems.
I'm so sorry to hear of the loss of those dear ones. So very sad.
I'm glad you're eating and drinking (and the others too). I am so hoping that you're getting better. Your mom is the best medicine for you for sure. I also hope your brother is getting better.
I am sending more purrs your way, Katie! It does sound like you are better, since you are eating.
And also, I think sometimes a kitty's human knows more about what is going on than the vet does. The vet may have years of training, but he does not live with his patients day in and day out. And they are not infallible.
Ah, the purrs for both of you continue!
I sneezed in sympathy a few hours ago. Drove mommy insane for a while, but it was only once, and just to be sympathetic to your sickies.
I of course got lots of attention for it. *tee hee*
Purrs, purrs, purrs,
QUINN
We are happy the "gazinta and gozeouta" are working, and your tail was up...our Mommy thinks this REALLY sounds like an URI; a steroid shot should have taken care of any allergies, right?
Regardless, we're purring hard.
Glad to hear that you are doing a little bit better Katie. It could be a cold or allergies. We just hope you get to feeling better soon. Take good care.
Miss Katie, I don't want to make King Spitty any more jealous than he already is, but I feel the power of the bikini is really starting to work, I really do! Spitty's spitshined furs are pretty healing too, I must admit and I think that between us, instead of smacky paws at dawn, if we work together, we could make you better! Really I do!! Hugs and smoochies xoxoxox
Katie, we hope that humidifier helps your stuffy nose. Good for you for eating! We continue to purr that you feel better real soon.
Me has a sad. :( Me send u a get well hug. (((Hug)))
Well, Katie, it sounds like you are doing a valiant job battling the cold (or allergies)! Keep up the good work. Give your mom some comfort, too. She is workin' hard to keep all her babies healing! xxoo
I am glad you are eating Katie and hope you continue to improve. Purrs to you and your brother, and your mum too.
Keep doing good dear Katie, we love you dearly.
I am so glad you are feeling better, Miss Katie! Also sending healing thoughts for your brother! xo
There sure are a lot of kitties with the sniffles an sneezing suddenly! We hope it isnt some new problem going around due ta the pawties lately. And we dont buy the "allergy" idea. Iffen we are remembering right, the kiities we see with sniffles and such are in different places, PLUS, we dont remember all this happening LAST year at this same time...
But, whatever, get better soon and get that tail staying up high!
I know your Mom will take care of you and make sure you’re not in any distress when you wheeze. I’m with you and think it’s a cold. Is there another vet you could call?
Sweet Katie, it sounds like you are starting to get better, and that makes us very happy. We will keep on purring and praying for you, Brovver and Mommy! Big hugs and love to you all.
We're glad to hear that you ate and used the litterbox. Those are both encouraging signs. It certainly does sound like a URI. We hope the humidifier is helping. You mentioned that you're using it in the computer room. Make sure your mommy puts the humidifier on the far end of the room from the computer, since with most humidifiers, the most heavily saturated air falls down within a few feet. It shouldn't damage a computer by them just being in the same room, but we don't want your mom to lose access to the internet so she can keep us posted about you and your brovver. We are purring for both of you.
Oh, pretty Katie, hugs to you and your mom. Lots of feel better soon purrs going your way from all of us!
I am so glad your Mommy bought a humidifier to help you breathe better. :)
It definitely sounds like a cat cold, just like what we all had. Is your Mommy able to give you some lysine? That is supposed to help if you have the herpesvirus and doesn't harm you even if you don't have it.
We are all purring for you to kick the virus out the door quickly and we'll all be saying our purrayers for a good report on your brovver's important Monday appointment.
You keep on eating and drinking and all your potty too, my beautiful Ladycat and I'll see you soon. I miss you so much! xoxo
Your Mancat Always, Your Boomie
Good girl for eating and snuggling and purrhaps that humidifier will help....allergies are a BIG problem for lots of us it seems. I'm just glad you're still home and still feeling perky enough to have that tail up at least once!!!
Kitty Hugs, Sammy
We're glad you're eating, Miss Katie, but we would like you to stop feeling congested. Please get 100% better soon!
Purrs,
The Chans
Katie we're so happy to hear that you are back home but sad that you are still under the weather. But we know your meowmy is taking good, good care of you - you're in great hands. We are thinking of you sweetheart. Love you!
Love
Selina & MomKatt Laura
Dear Katie, Whether it is a cold or allergies, we are pleased that you have taken a little upturn. We're sending bunches and bunches of prayers and purrs that you continue to improve and are soon well again. Purrs and hugs, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo
We are glad you are eating well Katie - Lucy had a cold last year and the vet gave me a one off powder to put on her food and it cured it by the next day. We are purring our best musical purrs for you.
Luv Hannah and Lucy xx xx
Katie, I hope you get through this soon. Our Maggie has allergies, and Chloe Jo has them along with chronic autoimmune problems. We feel very bad for you. We are still praying for you & Brother...and Mom. ~xo~
Miss Katie, I sure hope that vet gets things figured out jiffy-soon, so the remedy can be given soon. So sorry to hear you are suffering and your poor mom too. Many prayers and purrs for you all. healing vibes coming your way.
Oh my precious furriend Katie...stay snuggly with Mom and keep up that appetite and drinking. And your tail will start flying high again...paw hugs, Savannah
Dearest Katie! I'm glad you're home with Mom, and eating and drinking! Those are such good signs you're getting better! I'm sending hugs and well wishes your way for a strong recovery sweet friend. Tell your Mom i love and wish her well too! xx
Good morning, my sweet. Hope you had a good deep healing sleep last night, and Mommy and Brov-ver too. I am still purring my very, VERY best purrs for you, darling! XOXOXOXO
I've read that respiratory problems can occur when there are head injuries. I know that is a long shot, but has Katie been checked for head injuries? Also, is Katie taking Lysine? From what I've read, that might possibly be useful for Katie's respiratory problems.
We is purring you will be all better soon. Keep on eating, drinking and outputting!
We is sending purrs for your brovver and the families who have lost their furbabies too.
Have a great Sunday!
Sasha, Sami, & Saku
Pee Ess: If this posts twice (or something like it) mom says Blogger is giving her a hard time!
Feel better, Katie. We're purring for all of you. And Brian's family too.
