hello
i'm new to this list over from the fml.
my little barnaby is 10 months old he came to me as a rescue
2 months ago with a mild cough and some sinus drainage over
the past month and a half the drainage has started to bild in
his throut about the same way it does in humans. it's
especaly werse after a long sleep period wich is somwhat
fitfull. when he wakes up he has a lot of trouble swallowing
and breathing. i give him ferret rx (nose drops), and some
feratone to sooth his throat and he is comfertable for a few
hours. the vet had him on antibiotics for 3 days with no
change and keeping the dust in the house somewhat under
control has helped a little. i suspect he was exposed to
smoke or some thing else breatheble in his last home. i am
open to any ideas to treat this problem. thanks
