It's a Kitten November

And you know what happens when you have too many kittens in one place. Yup, you got it. They start to SNEEZE. And no one wants a sneezing kitten.

I took Tubbs and Schubert off to the off-site adoption cage at my vets, and both seemed as healthy as can be. Yet by the end of the day, Tubbs was sneezing his head off, and they both had to come home (you can't have sneezing kittens at a vet's office!)

One of the two kittens adopted from a foster home also was sneezing...yet he hadn't been here for well over a month. So that had to be a sneeze from a different source. Although I suppose I could have carried it to him when I came over to vaccinate and worm him.

At any rate, it seems like a fairly benign sneeze. Nonetheless, it postpones adoptions, and with growing kittens, that's not good!

The two black kittens who are already adopted are upstairs in the cat facility away from the other kittens. And the two adopted kittens who are boarding are in the house, also sequestered.

must be something in the air- Dusty was sneeing earlier this week and now she is bathroom steaming and having humidifier treatments. Since she and Amber go outside they must have carried something in so now I am also doing the panacur medication for 4
