Sicker kitties
The female cat is much better, and madly madly affectionate (and so adorable). Her eyes are a bit watery, and she sneezes now and then, but on the whole, she’s pretty much better.
The male cat, not so much. Over the weekend his eyes got terribly bad, and he is drooling, or maybe snotting, out of his mouth. His eyes actually are shut by whatever is coming out of them, which I wipe off a few times a day. When I do open them, the third eyelid is all red and swollen. It looks horrible. He is still eating, as far as I can tell, though he is skinnier than he was, and he’s definitely still mobile, but Tuesday he needs to go in to the vet. (Sadly, I absolutely cannot bring him in on Monday.) I am a little worried about him. I have antibiotic ointment for the eyes, but they are not getting any better.
I really need to not do this to myself.
Update: suddenly eyes seem slightly better (half-open, but still icky). This might have been because I took female kitty out for a cuddle and he was looking for her, but this seems promising.
