Here we are 4 days into antibiotic treatments and poor little Chip doesn't seem to be responding. His sneezing is changing a bit, but his nose is still wet with a discharge. His fur around his little tiny nostrils is getting a little matted. When he sits still enough and he allows you to pet him, him just sucks up all the lovin' he can. You can look into his eyes and tell that he's not feeling well, but you can only tell that when he's not running at high speed around the family room, dodging behind the patio door curtains and jumping up on the couch. In other words, he's acting like he's just fine. He just doesn't sound fine. AT least now I don't have to wrap him up in a towel when I feed him his meds - I just pick him up, flip him over on his back and cradle him in one arm while I have the syringe in the other hand. It's like he knows what's happening and he allows it to happen, though he doesn't really like it.
I hope he starts responding soon - I'm getting worried.
