My cat P. had a cold.
First time he contracted a human virus. He didn't contract my corona infection a month ago, but the common cold rhino type from last week.
He had three bad days, could hardly breathe through his nose, but thank god, there was no secondary infection or coughing involved. He was sneezing like a world champion though.
He is such a strong and tough cat (partly Norwegian Forest Cat, which makes the difference really), 17 years young, and got through this infection like a hero.
There were mornings when i feared i'd find him lying dead in his carrier box (his hiding place in times of trouble). But no, every morning when I shouted his name (he is almost deaf), he replied with a feeble miaow and then came crawling out of his box.
His nose has cleared up during the day, and he can now breathe much easier.
He is also eating again, even the kibble. which is great. I had to force feed him for two days with some renal emergency liquid, which i hate to do, but he felt better after the procedures.
Oh my, he is even licking up the tuna broth I gave him at 6 pm. Had to throw four servings away because he wouldn't even sniff at it.
So, things are looking pretty good at the moment.
