Poor jack

[RubbishMantra]

Oh no Chock! What's wrong with the little lad?

[Fluffycloudland77]

Have you seen a vet?

[chockbic]

He's got a flare up of his virus. Been given a jab. See how he is doing in a week.

Thanks for asking x

[Fluffycloudland77]

Poor Jack. Worrying isn't it?.

[chockbic]

It sure is. He kept going to sneeze, waking from sleep. Not happy about that.

[RubbishMantra]

Healing vibes from Little Monsieur, MCat and me.

Is this the same virus he had when he first came to you?

[chockbic]

Nice of you Rubbish, you are a sweetie

He does look miserable, bless him. I've got upset as I hate seeing him sick.

[chockbic]

Sorry yes didn't answer, vet thinks same virus.

[RubbishMantra]

Well, I sort of feel like I know him from your posts.

He should be fine then, he fought it off as a small kitten, now he's a strapping adolescent. His immune system will be more equipped to fight it.

Doesn't stop the worry though.

Just a thought - couldn't be hayfever could it?

[chockbic]

True we've been through adolescence together on this board.

He's got a temperature and wheeze, so more likely a virus.

Was sneezing a fair bit yesterday, but more of a pre sneeze today.

[RubbishMantra]

Speaking as a human, I find the pre-sneezes worse than actual full blown sneezes. Irritating and frustrating.

I'll bet Jack is strutting about on his ballet dancer legs tomorrow. Swiping at your nose. x

[chockbic]

I think you're right, he is annoyed, especially when he can't rest. Lots of swirly owl head action. Probably dizzy as much as anything

[RubbishMantra]

How's young Jack doing this morning Chock?

[chockbic]

He's better today, less pre and post sneezy.

Getting lots of rest, sleeping under the duvet.

[cozietoesie]

Keep him really warm and in bed. The warmth is really good for them I think - I know that it's advantaged Seniorboy when he has sniffles.

Good luck to him.

[chockbic]

His voice is coming back too. Will keep him settled x

[RubbishMantra]

Poor little thing. Glad he's feeling better.

[chockbic]

Going to check a couple of things out with the vet. Seems almost back to his bouncy self. Appetite not affected much

[cozietoesie]

Glad he's better, chockbic. Let him burrow into the warmth when he wants to though - it might be the best thing for him.

[chockbic]

He went out briefly earlier, as he was driving us mad, in truth.

Snuggled up in his basket now, with an extra blanket.

[cozietoesie]

All the best to him.

[chockbic]

Thanks cozie.

[RubbishMantra]

Ah that's good his appetite wasn't affected by his sniffliness. He must've kept his sense of smell during his poorliness.

Yay, Jack properly on the mend!

[chockbic]

It's probably more a sense of gluttony, than smell.

[RubbishMantra]

I can relate to that.
