Depending on the kitty, the level of the fungus, the severity of the fungus.... It can clear up in as quick as two weeks and up to 6 months. If its caught quick and doesn't spread on the kitty and they only have one spot usually it clears up in two weeks if you do a topical treatment. Kitties...

Oh and you may want to look into lysine treatment for you little one if she does have herpes. It's what helped my guy finally but his herpes into remission.

I don't know about the tests for FIP but I know it's very difficult to get a 100% diagnose while the cat is still alive. It's usually diagnosed in an autopsy. :( The Convenia shot shouldn't interfere with any FIP testing as FIP is a virus, not a bacteria.  If your little girl is diagnosed with...

I have had young cats with allergies... And licking like that is a huge sign of allergies... I'd really consider changing his diet.  I'd recommend going a grain free diet, and then if that doesn't help, change the protein. It's worth trying!

Awwww... I'm so sorry to hear about your little one. I do had to put the thyroid kitty I had down (she was a foster) she was in such bad shape and couldn't put any weight on it was just cruel keeping her alive longer and more so since the meds were making her worse, not better. I understand...

I had kitten that was smacked really hard with a hand in the face. I think it fractured his nose, he had a bloody nose on and off for a couple of days and some swelling. I wonder if she did injure herself pretty good and it's all cleared up now. Or she inhaled something up her nose that was...

If it looks like the tip is dead, he needs to go to vet. There are a lot of conditions that can hurt or kill your kitty if a 'dead' body part is left on him. The tip of his tail might seem like no biggy but the flesh can keep dying down the tail... and even enter his blood stream. The vet will...

I'm glad shes doing better. :) Hopefully the meds clear it up 100% and she is herpes free!

The antibiotic shot is a 7 day shot, she'd only have to go in twice for it if they kitty didn't recover after the first 7 days. It works great!

Some cats takes weeks... some cats that same day their fine.... you just never know how they're going to react. 

I'm glad her eyes have returned to normal! I know what you mean about money for pointless tests. I've done it my self (I've done tons of fecals and nothing positive in any of them). I've just never seen that before and in humans it is a very worrying sign, otherwise I often recommend waiting...

Most likely they'll be a little standoffish when you return... and you might have a couple of potty accidents.... One of my cats is notorious for peeing in suitcases when ever he see them... I was gone for three weeks once and got accepted back very quickly into the house. As long as you have...

Most likely he's acting out due to all the changes his life. I third (or what ever number it is) getting him set up in the spare bedroom.  Peeing and Pooping all over the house is very common with kitties not used to kids who are suddenly dealing with kids in their life. I'd make sure that...

Has her urine been test for crystals? Seeking out soft things to pee on it a BIG sign of crystals or a bladder infection. Did you change your litter at all recently? She might not like the new stuff, even if you got the same brand and got a different scent or something. Some cats are VERY picky...

They get over it after a couple days. I haven't seen a kitty mope about for more then a couple of days.... Unless they're a long time bonded pair and in those cases I've seen them stop eating eating and get severely depressed, but that's rare and only a few kitties get this attached. My Monkey...
