My cat is sick. I think. She’s very very cuddley and her eyes are watery. That means she’s got a cold right?
What do I do? Anyone?
IN other less important news, nothing new is going on in my life. I got spoiled at christmas, and I’m procrastinating on my WIP. This weekend will be a cram weekend for me to get it down and on my editors desk on Tuesday when he gets back from his holidays. :)
One of the gifts I got for christmas was a scanner/copier, and when I have time I’ll hook it up and have some fun. I can finally share a bunch of picutures with you all of magazine pictures and stuff that inspire me.
Oh! And I did try to clean and rearange my office on Boxing Day, adn I found some really old files and papers. I plan to share them with you too. But, uhmm, right now I want to go cuddle my cat. She’s looking sorta sad.
Give you kitty lots of hugs and cuddling; pets are precious. Waiting for some pictures once you get the scanner hooked up.
by Robyn December 29th, 2005 at 10:10 amKeep her cuddly and warm and make sure she eats and drinks. Just like if you had a cold…
Also, if you have a diffuser (not sure if you’re into natural healings) you can diffuse peppermint oil in the air. It works!
When I or my daughter get sick, I use peppermint oil and try not to use over the counter drugs. When I use the oil the cold/flu lasts maybe a day, two at the most…

by Saskia December 29th, 2005 at 1:45 pmOkay - is her nose runny too? Is she sneezing? There is something called Cat Flu and in adult cats is will usually clear up on its own in a week to ten days. Keep her eating, don’t worry unless the secretions get thick and are discolored. On the flip side, it could be just an irritation - a simple washing with warm water of a mild salt solution (a pinch of salt to a cup of water) should clear it up. With as many cats as I have I’ve run into my fair share of problems. Keep cuddling her - that always helps us feel better and cats are no different.
by Eve December 29th, 2005 at 4:10 pmShe sneezed a few times yesterday but not yet today…and today she’s eating, and her eyes aren’t runny. So maybe it was 24 hour thing. :)
by Sasha December 29th, 2005 at 4:19 pmI’m going to keep close eye onher though. Thanks Eve!
Sorry to hear about your kitty.
by Jordan December 29th, 2005 at 6:44 pmGlad she’s doing better. If something like this happens again, just email me and ask - I have loads of books about cat care.
by Eve December 30th, 2005 at 9:39 amThat’s the same thing I got for Christmas . Only thing is it runs the ink cartridges are small so get extras if you are planning to print.
by Tamara December 30th, 2005 at 8:25 pmUse Warm weak tea & wipe her eye with it using a cotton ball.(Old wise tale)I have used it on my animals & it works.If not better in a day or two i would take her to your Vet.
