Other Pneumonia

[Emily]

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.

 

[Emily]

Ok, thank you!

keep him out of the heat too. was there any x-rays of the lungs?

 

[Emily]

Ok, thank you Sherry, I will.
Yes, they took x-rays. It came on real quick. Kinda scary!

yes, it will come on quick. so glad they did the x-rays right off the bat.
cool and calm will keep him comfy. not cold like on your Avatar. Bet the poor fella's gunky breathing. relax and keep him company. He'll like that, and keep us posted.

 

[Emily]

You are right.
Lmbo at, "not cold like my avatar!"
Thank you!

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.

 

[Emily]

Thank you GatorRay! Those are great ideas.

GatorRay,
I'm going to make him some chicken & rice right now. What kind of chicken do you make? Boiled maybe!?

Yes... boiled breast you can also use ground beef and drain the fat

 

[Emily]

Ok, thanks. He will LOVE that!

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.
