Tanner Tuesday

Tanner's appointment has been moved to Friday.  I called last week, on Thursday, because he didn't seem any better...worse even.  We increased his steroid, and he wanted him on it for a week before we reviewed again, if possible.
Well, I took some of your suggestions from last week and we have been steaming him in the bathroom.  This is helping him breath better, at least for a little while.

He got a new X scratcher for being such a good boy and tolerating things well.

I also bought some saline spray and have been using that in his nose.  This seems to offer a fair amount of relief and lets him sneeze out some of the junk.

Tanner after two rounds of spray...sleeping hard...finally able to breathe better!

We are seeing glimpses of improvement, so I hope we are on the right track.  Thanks for your purrs and suggestions!

  1. Continued purrs! We're glad he's at least showing some improvement. The steam certainly does help for the short term...just don't look too closely at your next hot water bill. LOL.

  3. Our Dad uses that saline spray all the time. His nasal passages are inflamed from the radiation he had on his nose.

  7. May we display your header on our new site directory? As it is now, the site title (linked back to your home page) is listed, and we think displaying the header will attract more attention. In any event, we hope you will come by and see what is going on at SiteHoundSniffs.com.
