Hello!
To try and not have this be a 2 page long post here are the deets:
1. I am fostering a litter of 5 kittens with their mom
2. They are 7 weeks old today and I have had them since 2 weeks before they were born.
3. They have never been outside of my house or around other cats
4. They have only even been around 2 humans that were around other cats (but mine) One during a meet and greet in my house, in their room. 1 during a drive up clinic to get their FVCRP vaccine, their worming and their chipping done (they did not leave my car and were only handled by one person)
5. Momma ia fully vaccinated and has been before their birth. Kittens were vaccinated Sunday.
6. Monday night 1 kitten started limping. No other symptoms but obviously in pain. All other kittens and mom are fine
7. Tuesday morning same kitten is still limping but on a different leg. No other symptoms, all other kittens and mom are fine. One limping kitty is still noticeably calmer
8. Tuesday night through this morning, limping is much better. Hard to see unless really looking, but still not quite to full force. No other symptoms, all other kittens and mom are totally fine.
9. Tonight, zero limping (he's running and climbing cat trees) but now has a mark (scratch maybe??) On his nose and what may be an ulcer in his mouth.
Questions
1. Of it's Calici how in the world could he have possibly gotten it? He legit has had a rather "dull" life in a room in my house.
2. Any idea if these are Calci(esk). On the tounge picture back left is what I was looking at.
3. If yes, how do I disinfect the room after they get out so my next litter doesnt get it? It is carpet.
4. Any other thoughts or ideas?
They are going to the vet tomorrow at 2:30. It is very possible it is NOT calicivirus. Just rough and tumble kitty play. Just trying to get the info now because of course I am obsessing. :/
