I'm glad that they're better. We have a load of rain coming which is hard on stiff joints.

It's quiet here. Got a sick kitty. He seems to have a cold.

I'm glad we have rain on the way, but I'm fortunate not to have a reaction to it in my joints. That can't be much fun.

What are your sick kitty's symptoms?

From VetInfo:

Upper Respiratory Symptoms

Kittens can get cold-like symptoms. These include sneezing and lower energy. The vet may find a mild fever as well. You may also notice wet patches around the nostrils and runny eyes. These symptoms require a vet visit if they don’t go away or lessen after 3 days or if they progress into more serious symptoms.

Lower Respiratory Symptoms

If your kitten’s cold has moved down into the lower respiratory system, you may notice some hacking type of coughing and a raspy sound to the meow. Your cat may also wheeze while breathing. In terms of veterinary care, follow the guidelines above.
