Naddy is going to the vets tomorrow. She is having a hard time shaking this cold. I think antibiotics are in order. She is much happier to be out of that nasty heat but I know once she feels better she will be a different kitty. You can tell by her eyes she isn't feeling well.

Oh, what lucky kitties!!! Was the family difficult to round up and move?
I hope the vet can get Naddy on the right track soon! The beautiful girl really does look like she's feeling a bit punky...

I see you got what you wanted,they all look so comfy,lucky,lucky kitties
I would think,if Naddy has a cold,the muggy heat will just make her feel worse,she is such a girly girl,very,very sweet Hopefully nothing serious is wrong with her.

And me too. She deserves to be happy and healthy. Quote:
I had brought Naddy in this morning to watch her. Phoned the vets shorty afterwards. The babies came in a couple of hours later. They need to be healthy before going back out. Mom may stay in with me for a while longer to get dried up. Kitties are almost three months now. They are fine without her milk and she needs to be healthy again. She can't do that with them taking her nutrients. I'll get it worked out.

Yay , . I really think that Naddy is a home kitty, but I also do think they would be happy with the outside stimulation .

Hi 14+!
When Naddy was at our factory, the only thing I had on me when the guys told me about her eyes was R1. It's a homeopathic product made by DR Reckweg. It's to treat inflammation, fever, infection. After a week on it she was better. I always have at home and at the barn, the R1, R55 (for injuries, fractures, bobos etc.), Bio 87 (anti-bacteria), Bio 88 (anti-viral) and Bio 93 (immune system booster. Whenever my cats or horses are sick, I start them on the stuff. I kind of want to keep the antibiotics as a last resort. If you are interested in getting these products, let me know. I will send you a kit. It will be part of my contribution to help you and and say thank you. I get it directly from the distributor. Last year when Kookie had to have surgery, I started her on some of the products before the surgery and continued after. She had the surgery on the Thursday a.m. and I was sent home on the Friday p.m. with anti-inflammatory and anti biotics. When I gave the anti-inflammatory on the Saturday, Kookie threw it up. She did no want to eat and the paw that she had the catheter, was more swollen than the one she had surgery on. Because the surgeon was not there on the weekend, I was on my own. I started given her doses of R1 and R55 and also put it on her paw. I also put a cold compress. Within 15 minutes, she felt much better. When I went back to see the surgeon on the Monday, it did not understand why her wound was healing faster than normal. It was the R55. I had to reduce the dose otherwise I was told that the stitches would not have come out!!!! I told the surgeon the story. He is European so he is open to alternative medicine. Keep me posted to see what the vet says. p.s. One of these days, I will have to call you cause it's tooooooooo long to write all this!!!!!! |

Yes Jim. I am turning off the taps. Moms will produce until the kittens stop nursing but it will be less and less as time goes on. In feral life, barn life where they aren't fixed it is not unknown to have the old litter nursing when the new one comes along. Sometimes while they are nursing their own! Poor mommas. As I said, kittens are almost 3 months old. It's time for mommy now.
L4 - Don't tell hubby but I am going to do my level best to make Naddy a house kitty. She is clearly much happier indoors. Can't say my other six are happy to have her though. They've been checking the door all day. michmonster - thank you for your offer. However, when I said her eyes I mean her third eyelid is showing. In her case by quite a bit. Has she always had issues with this? Nadine has a cold in her chest. You can hear it when she is breathing. She chokes a bit when she is eating and I can tell she is having difficulty breathing. While I would love to try out the homeopathic/natural products I feel Nadine needs needs meds now. My vet is pretty good at homeopathic meds as well if I feel uncomfortable with what she is wanting to give. I need to get her better and she needs to have her kittens weaned so she can start concentrating on getting better.

When Nadine was here, her third eye lid was not showing at all. The only ones that had the eye lid showing were Minimoo, and his twin. The vet thought it was because of parasites ,for which they got their advantage+ (i think that's what it was called).
I hope she feels better soon. Poor little one. |

All the guys told me was that she had runny eyes. I never saw her third eyelid. I think it's best to bring them in and find out what's going on. The kittens were a bit sneezing when Naddy brought them in the factory. It was very dusty so they did inhale and ate lots of it!!!!! It cleared up after a while when they were at cpietra's.
Keep us posted! p.s. What did your hubby say????? |

14+ The kitties look so at home in the spare room. I hope that Naddy gets over her sniffles soon and so do the babies.

Naddy did have some congestion in her lungs when she was here, as did Rose when she first got here. I was thinking it was from the fumes from the factory . It took a few months for her to clear up.

I can't think of anything better than a bed full of kitties! I'm so glad you are able to give them some time away from the heat. Hopefully, Naddy will be able to get over her cold faster now that she's not having to keep feeding the little ones.

As for John. Do you mean if only he had known when I started this or when he met me? He would have turned tail and run back then if he knew.

Naddy's vet visit
Was going to start a new thread but this one will work.
I just spent the last hour or so medicating, worming and trimming claws on Naddy and six squirmy kittens. And I have the scratches from Little Miss 'Tude to show it!! Naddy and babies are on Clavamox for 10 days to get rid of the infection in their chests and eyes. They also were wormed again with Strongid and I am taking a fecal in tomorrow so it can be checked for Coccidia. She feels they may still have worms in their system. She also gave (sold ) me a tube of Nutri-Cal Vetoquinol to get their systems built a little stronger. I am to keep on using the L-lysine in their food too. She told me that in all the years of her working at shelters and different venues and then finally seeing some healthy kittens she was shocked to learn the ones in shelters really aren't healthy. She then said this litter and mom weren't healthy. Well Duh! That's why I took Naddy and two of her babes to her. I am hoping all this clears up this precious family. It's time for them to start enjoying life. As for the nail trimming - Naddy was a peach. Most of the babes were great! Miss 'Tude (Sleeves) is earning her nickname. And just for the cute factor............

There are actually two sets of "twins" Frenchy. MiniMoo and his one sister look a lot alike. Then Sleeves ('Tude) and Sleeveless are the other set.
