I just took my baby to the Vet & he has pneumonia! Any suggestions on how to keep him more comfortable!?

OH NO, so sorry to hear this. Just keep him quiet and watch him for any signs of getting worse. Keep us posted on his recovery.

How is his appetite? Drinking good? If he is that is a good thing, if he takes a turn for the worse those are tell-tale signs.

Please keep us updated, prayers for a quick recovery!

@ Desertsky, he has lost his appetite a little bit but he still drinks. I will keep an eye on that. Thank you!

Thank you for your prayers too! That is so nice!

Oh, gosh. The advice above is great. If his appetite is going down, try tempting him with can food, cooked chicken/rice, that sort of thing. I am the crazy food lady around here and I cajole mine into eating. lol

PLEASE give us updates on how he is doing.

Is he breathing well? If not you can take him to take hot shower with you. Meaning that he is in the bathroom with you breathing the steam. That helps.
