One of my four week old kitten has a URI. The vet put him on Amoxi twice daily. His nose is SO stuffed that he is breathing out of his mouth, but still gasping for air. I called the vet and he said that once the medicine kicks in he'll be fine. The poor baby cant nurse b/c he's breathing out of his mouth. I put Vapor Rub under his nose to help clear the passage and it helped a little, but not too much. I am suctioning out his nose as needed.
Is there anything else I can do to help him breath easier? I was thinking fill the bathroom with steam and sit in there with him and suction as it comes out. Think that'll work?
Thanks!
