Hello everyone, thanks to you all for stopping by for our Thankful Thursday Blog Hop. I am always thankful to each of you for joining us! Each and every Thursday we share the things for which we are most thankful and we always enjoy reading all of the things you are thankful for too. If you are new to our Thankful Thursday Blog Hop, thanks for hopping in, we really do get excited when new blogger pals join us!
I’ll be honest with you dear friends, I’m not doing good at all. After my emergency visit for a bad cough I’ve become increasingly congested. The Dad took me to our Vet on Monday. She examined my records and re-ran one bloodwork good and sure enough I have a bad infection and it is likely from A BAD TOOTH or BAD TEETH. At this point a DENTAL EXTRACTION ISN’T ON THE TABLE because the last time I had anesthesia I stopped breathing and the Vet had to resuscitate me. Trying anesthesia again is a last resort option.
At least there is a plan and I’m most thankful for that. Right now I’m on two powerful antibiotics to try and get the infection under control. I’m also on Cerenia nose drops and Saline nasal spray along with warm and cool humidifiers to try and break up the congestion, it’s difficult to breath.
But, like I said, at least there is a plan and I’m most thankful for the attentive Vet care. So, what are you thankful for today? Tell us in the comments and then join us for our Thankful Thursday Blog Hop. Remember, adopt cats, we deserve it!!!!! More Forever Homes More Often! Purrrrr! Zip! Later!

Brian, we are sending you all of our purrs, prayers, and well wishes! Pup Astrid is sending her woofs as well. Your case reminds me of a kitty who once visited the cat clinic where I used to work. He was so congested we ended up having to use children’s Little Noses decongestant drops on him in order to help him breathe. He made a good recovery, and we hope you also get to feeling much better very, very soon!
oh sweet and brave Brian!!! We are sending ALL OF THE PURRS AND PRAYERS THAT WE HAVE!!! Praying that the meds work! I have a feeling they are going to!!!!!!! You are a tough guy and you have a Dad who is on top of everything and your Vet too! Sending bunches of love to all of you!
I am sending lots of purrs your way, Brian! I really hope those antibiotics knock out that infection.
Dear Brian, I am so very sorry to hear you are not feeling well. I sure hope that those antibiotics kick that nasty infection to the curb! Keeping you in our thoughts and prayers that you will be feeling yourself soon. Sending you “gentle” hugs and one for your hu-dad, too, as I’m sure he needs one.
Love and purrs xoxo
So sorry to hear you are not well. I know your Dad is doing everything he can to get you back to your happy healthy self.
unknown to us, cole (on tick drops) was bitten and got rocky mountain spotted fever. He was on death’s door, but 4 months of antibiotics saved him. The vets wanted to stop, I said no. He was left weaker but alive. I wish you health, Brian. You have steadfast pawrents.

Oh, bless you, Brian, we just found out. You have an awesome Dr and I am sure with the best care and meds you will pull through this OK. Sending lots of positive prayers and wishing good karma comes home to help you and your family pull through this. ❤️

Oh Brian ! I guess we can be thankful that there is a plan to help you get better ! We send lots of purrayers and POTP your way !
Brian, we are purring our most purriest purrs hoping you can get over this health hurdle.
Sweet Brian. We are sending all the love and purrs we can your way. We are very familiar with what you’re going through at our house and we use a nebulizer with saline solution to help with the breathing. We bought a nebulizer on Amazon and then it’s hooked up to a cat carrier that we cover with towels to provide the care needed. Not saying the cats like it, but it does help. xoxox
Sending loads of purrs and prayers, sweetie.
Poor Brian, we are sending all our prayers to you, our friend, and your worried family
Hopefully all the meds do the trick and you are on the mend soon.
I’m so sorry to hear that you aren’t feeling well, Brian. Sending lots of love and POTP to you and prayers for a quick recovery. ♥♥♥♥♥♥
