Went to vet another time two days ago, and yesterday it looked like he was getting better, but today I'm worried again.
He's sleeping a lot of the time, he feels feverish and he hardly eats, yet he had gained 100gr in one week.
His eyes are still not OK, now that one eye is getting better, the other one looks bad.
I put ointment on twice a day, but Elias licks it off.
But that's not the worst thing, I just don't like what I see, Elliot being so calm and not like a young kitten should be.
I don't know much about FIV but I feel so suspicious now. :( and I'm scared, very scared.
-
It is very scary when they get ill. If he has a temp then make sure his hydration levels are OK. Try him with a teaspoon of water every hour or two.
-
So sorry that the beautiful little Elliot is not well - get better soon little one xxx
Have you got any plants that he could be nibbling on to make him poorly ?
-
Poor boy, hope he's better soon
-
He's still not well. He sleeps a lot and had fever again yesterday.
I phoned the vet and had to start the AB she gave me. So he had an injection with AB, syrup and now tablets. His eyes are still infected so we think he has a virus, probably cat flu, but his nose is clear. We have to offer him tasty food to get him to eat so he gains strenght

Sending lots of vibes for little Elliot. :'(
-
Oh no! Sending lots of positive healing vibes Elliot's direction, bet you are past yourself with worry! :hug: :hug: :hug:
-
Please give Elliot a stroke for me! I hope the little chap feels better soon.
-
It goes up and down which worries me a lot. One moment he's stealing my food (or trying) then later he's asleep somewhere and feels hot.
I never ever experienced this.
I used to have cats that died of age or had to be PTS at some time in their life because they were very ill, but never ever before did I have young cats that were ill. :'(
-
has the vet done blood tests?
-
has the vet done blood tests?
not yet and believe me, I fear FIV might come out of those :'(
Now it takes some time for the AB to start working properly, he's had it twice now, so I'll just have to be patient.
-
Sending lots of vibes for your little man :hug:
-
He's finally better :Party 3:
He is playing today, the fever has gone!! He's eating tons of food!!!
The nurse of the woodlands is very happy (has a new patient though, but that's another story!!)
