Thread: Introducing adult cat to adult cat

His eyes are a bit better today and he is sneezing less but he's still not (i'm guessing!- judging by his first day at ours) on top form. The breeder said I should put him on antibiotics if he starts sneezing so he's gone on them today along with some L-lysine in his food. He still has the appetite of a baby elephant and is playing between snoozes so he certainly isn't listless but I am feeling apprehensive. We'll go to the vet tomorrow if he doesn't show further improvement by then.
What's really sweet is that Sylvie seems to be trying to get Dudley to play with him and keeps chirping at him then running away. I'm trying my hardest to get them to eat out of different bowls as I wouldn't like Sylvie to catch anything from Dudley but they keep swapping food bowls or Dudley barges Sylvie out of the way to get some extra helpings!

Glad to hear that little Dudley is showing some signs of improvement - it's always a worry when they're poorly - our poor Gracie had a throat infection after her recent speying and we were worried sick! Hopefully the antibiotics will kick in soon and he'll be back to 100% x

Thanks Rachel. I'm kicking myself that I didn't start the antibiotics on sunday now (I feel horribly guilty in fact) but I really hate giving antibiotics unecessarily and I thought he would be sneezy for a day and then recover anyway. Just phoned tom to see how Dudley is doing and he's come down off his tree to have yet another meal and is now purring on the sofa. Fingers crossed he's on the mend.

No need to feel guilty - although having said that I know I did cos it took me a couple of days to see if Gracie would improve on her own! Sounds like he's definitely on the mend though - no doubt the AB's wil knock it on the head in no time :-) x
