thanks guys for asking how he is, this is the first chance that I could get on the pc :(
Took Sabre the vets, he was a bit weasy so the vet gave him a antibiotic injection which will last 2 weeks plus some Bisolvon powder,I ask for two packs as Simba has started sneezing now too! Must of caught it from Geri as she was sneezing last week,because Geri goes out she must of picked it up from somewhere. :(They are due for there boosters at the end of the month,but with having to pay vet bills all the time we are not gonna have enough money saved, you can have the booster 18months after having the first one though,which is still ok! (so the vet said) gonna have to start saving again and hope that they don't catch anything before then.Never ever had to go the vets so much since we got the Bengals. (but I could never be without them)xx

my vet suggestd worms - can't remember if it was heart worms or lung worms - something that is becoming more common apparantly. Advocate is good for them and you can do that rather than frontline one month.

Cats dont usually cough as such when bringing up a fur ball, its more like being sick and wretching.

If he is still doing this after two days I would be inclined to get him checked by a vet, or at least speak to your vet for advice.

Sabre has been coughing on and off for a couple of days now, he has brought up a bit of clear liquid each time, do you think it might be a hairball trying to come up, seems ok in him self, with him being a Bengal they don't molt as much. :thanks:
