Hello all!!!!
I have a couple dilemmas I would love some advice on!!
1) My kitty has been sneezing, wheezing, and has had a runny nose for the past couple of days so I did a little research and found that he more than likely has an upper respiratory infection which are very common and pretty harmless. He already has an appt with the vet in mid jan. I was windering if any one knew if there was anything I could do for him in the meantime or any otc meds for it???
2)NEUTERING??--Conner is about a yr. and a half now. When he was 4 mos I made his appt to get neutered, got all the way to the vet and turned back around and went right home(I know, Im a wimp!) But I couldnt do it. He wasnt spraying and there were no female kitties that he would have access to impregnate,so I thought.."Why fix what isnt broke?" He has been well behaved thus far until about 2 mos. ago.We had a friend stay with us and we also stored all of his belongings; including his mattresses that smelled like his cats and dogs. Then my little man all of a sudden started to spray (beginning with our friend's mattresses!!!)
He got a couple of other places too. So I have just recently made his vet appt for jan. My fiancee doesnt believe I will go through with it and picks on me, but I have assured him that I have an iron will!(eek!) But since our friend has left my cat has stopped spraying! The appt is all made and my fiancee is beginning to actually believe that I have the guts to go through with it,,,,anndd ofCOURSE now I am really reconsidering it. I dont know what to do now! I am scared of him changing (personality-wise and physically) and I love my kitty just the way he is. I would love to hear from all of you pet parents who have experience in this field. I am all tied up in knots about this and dont know what to do,,HELP!!
