Poor sick Penny

| June 7, 2016

I mentioned before that poor Penny has definitely had a respiratory cold of some kind. The little kitten has been sneezing like mad, sleeping a lot and not playing at all. What struck me most was that she is so quiet and is usually so chatty. I knew then that she was very sick. Then she stopped eating. Not good, if you know anything about cats. We took her to the vet and it turned out that she had a fever and was definitely sick. She came home with antibiotics that she had to take twice a day for 14 days. Not fun, but Penny was so good and didn’t try to spit it out or anything. Sam has been good about helping. She holds Penny while I give her the medicine so she doesn’t wiggle away and has been giving her lots of gentle hugs and kisses. She is already so much better than she was, and it’s a good thing because Sam is very worried about her baby!
