How to know a good vet from a bad one? - Page 2

Her eyes actually look fine now, her furs just a little more wet-looking around her eyes than usual, but I think that's just because of the ointment. It just breaks my heart to have to give this tiny little kitten all this medicine. I think I was just being a bit of a worrier! As for the clavamox, she's taking it in liquid form like a champ (though she's a little ticked at me for it) And she seems to be doing much better. No sneezing and no more crusties! Lots of purrs too

I had the same issue with my rescue cat a month ago when we brought her home. She started sneezing and coughing and by the time we got her back to the shelter for treatment her eye was a little swollen. They gave me clavamox and eye drops (not ointment) They said if she didnt sit still enough for the drops I could come get ointment though so it sounds like a vet preference. Anyway Georgia's eyes looked worse after the drops for the first day or two and then all of a sudden were so much better and she is a happy healthy kitten now!

I hope your kitty recovers just as fast!
