4 Cats All PoorlyHi, i would like some advice as i have a multi cat household and 4 cats all with a cold (mild cat flu ?) - i am taking them to the vets and the two youngest (George and Heidi) have eyedrops for very sore eyes, the two older cats (MAx and Oli) are sneezing and wheezing - all down in the dumps. One question, as the have all caught the virus together, once they recover, will it go away or will it keep going round the household  - I want this all to be over, and understand it will take about 2 to 3 weeks.Thanks

So sorry to hear that all your cats are poorly - how very worrying for you. I can't really comment on whether the virus is in the house - viruses by their nature have to die out themselves. Did your vet give any advise? Do you know if it's a problem in the area the vet practice covers? |

2 of my 4 have got cat flu at the moment. My vet said there is a 7-10 day incubation period, but if they get the sypmtoms to bet them on baytril, and they will be fine as they have been vaccinated against the 'killer' flus. |

Hi, we've been to the vets and it s respiratory infection, so they all will have an antibiotic injection to last 2 weeks and anti inflammatories. It's horrid seeing them all so ill and I hope this helps them get back to their normal selves soon. Good news, once they have recovered it shouldn't come back, just need to get through the next week. |

Ask the vet for some Bisolven can be popped in their water bowl or in to catmilk helps with the snuffles |

Hi, we now have Bisolvin for all and all are on antibiotics and steroids. The vets are puzzled how a fully vaccinated household can be infected like we are. Fingers crossed all get better over the next few days. thanks for you advice  |

Thank you, It looks like we have now turned a corner, all are perkier (even George) if still snuffily. One more trip to the vets on Thursday to check progress, I am getting a bit sick of the place  |
