This is not how I like to introduce a kitten, but please meet Foxglove.
While his sister Larkspur is relatively healthy, he came in with a sneeze that turned into congestion and labored breathing overnight. He’s been on antibiotics and fluids for two days and we just added a second one today along with oxygen, nasal drops, and gentamicin in the nebulizer. He’s also being tube fed.
It breaks my heart watching him struggle. Trying to provide him any relief possible.💔 @themarigoldkittencrew said.

kitten Foxglove wants you to know that he woke up this morning a whole new kitten! One day of oxygen, a different course of abx, and nebulizing and he’s feeling so much better. There is no more gasping for breath and he even ate on his own today (as you can see by the formula he got all over himself). He’s still sneezy and a little congested but the antibiotics should clear that up soon. ♥️ @themarigoldkittencrewkitten said.
Super proud of this boy! He’s chugging bottles and working on that pear-shape. I’ve still got two other littermates to introduce, but I’ll let Foxglove have the spotlight for one more day! @themarigoldkittencrew said.
