Hey there,
So my family and I have been protecting and feeding a gorgeous stray we call Church (not that his personality matches that of the Pet Sematary cat). Recently, we took him inside as he injured his front leg, and was being beaten up rather fiercely outside. He's content being sheltered, and his leg is all better...but he's developed an intense respiratory infection. I have antibiotics and nose drops for him, but what else can I do? He's stopped eating - and he's been losing instead of gaining weight as it is - because he can't smell or see well (third eyelid, wet and glossed over eyes when he can open them). I'm making him comfortable, but there has to be more I can do.
