My kitten has watery eyes again. When can I vaccinate him after URI?

Yes this should be fine as long as she is feeling better. Also, you may consider putting her on a daily immune boosting vitamin like viralys or vetriscience lysine treats. It doesn’t treat the virus but it may help to boost her immune system. I hope this helps!

If they are better from the URI, then I would recommend to go ahead and get them their first set of shots now. Most vets will recommend to give them a total of 3-4 sets of shots to help build their immune system.

I'm sorry to hear that Memphis is having this problem. It is certainly possible that he has an upper respiratory infection even if he has been vaccinated with Felocell-4. I am attaching more information on upper respiratory infections below. https://www.vin.com/veterinarypartner/default.aspx?pid=19239&id=4951489 Since most upper respiratory infections are viral, the only treatment option we have are products to stimulate the immune system (like your vet gave you). However, if Memphis stops eating or his congestion gets worse, I would certainly contact your veterinarian. Good luck! I hope that was helpful and answered your question. Thanks for using PetCoach.

Yes, it is possible he may have contracted feline herpes virus which can stay with him for life and often flares with stressful events. As long as he does not have a fever and is generally well then you may be able to proceed with vaccination which can help to reduce the severity and shedding of the infection

Hi, and thanks for your question. This sign could be compatible with a respiratory tract inflammation/infection. A clinical examination at your local veterinarian is essential to confirm these clinical suspicions and treat appropriately. Antibiotics may be needed. If the other cat is not vaccinated I would recommend to wait until the signs are completely resolved and treated. Yes, vaccination for the daughter's cat is best. Hope this answer was helpful, but please do not hesitate to contact us again on the forum or by requesting a consultation if you have any more questions or to discuss it any further. If this answer was helpful please let us know, this will be used to improve our service!

Thank you for submitting your question regarding Pluto. He will need to see his veterinarian again as it does not sound like he is improving. He may require a different antibiotic or a longer course. He is so young, it is easy for him to get dehydrated. He may be given fluids as well. In the meantime, keep his eyes clear of discharge and encourage him to eat and drink as best you can. I hope this information helps!

As long as Maybel is eating and drinking, she will be fine to wait until Monday. I can give you some home remedies to try as well to see if that helps her, and these will work well in conjunction with medications from the vet. Please keep in mind that these home remedies should not be a substitute for seeing the vet, and I would have her seen on Monday. First, you can try starting her on an L-lysine supplement - this is an amino acid that has been shown to help the immune system fight off respiratory infections more effectively. Enisyl and Viralys are both good brands, and can be purchased over the counter without a prescription - just follow the dosing instructions on the label based on your cat's weight. If she's congested, you can also try using a humidifier or bringing her into the bathroom with the door closed while you take a hot shower - the steam and humidity help to break up congestion and temporarily relieve symptoms associated with respiratory infections. I hope this helps and Maybel feels better soon!
