Hey Spydi!!!

Good Going!  Drooling unless it is from meds (which my cat does) is usually a sign of something serious.. Thank God you got her to the vet in time. I am sure she will be fine now that she is on antibiotics--105 temp, wow.

Poor little thing. Happy she has you to watch out for her.
You should let the rescue where you adopted her know just how sick she was. Apparently they sent her home with you in a bad condition. They should reimburse you for the Vet bill. They should also be scolded for allowing such a sick little kitty to be adopted and should check the health of the other cats in their care, Upper respiratory infection (URI) runs rampant in young cats in shelters--this needs addressing.

Wishing you and your little darling a long and happy life. Thank you for taking the time to love and care for a rescue. You will not be disappointed--they love deeply those who come to their aid.
Think they know you saved their life!!

Sincerely,
CML

Please keep us posted on her improvement, K?

Thank you for replying.  Yes, she was/is very sick. Upper respiratory stuff......got her to vet first thing in am and she had 105degree temp.  Vet thought she was gonna die.  Gave her a a shot of antibiotic and a shot of something for fever sent me home. (Crying)......she's still here, doing much better but on antibiotics for couple weeks.  Ughhhhhh she is very sweet, I already love her.

Good thing you caught it in time. Good to read the vet was wrong.  Good luck for kitty getting fully well.

Hi Spider,

Get her to the vet ASAP--she sounds like she got a hold of some nasty tasting stuff--maybe a "spider".  Cats drool when they hate the taste of something---lets just hope it is nothing more than that and nothing toxic!

Please let us know the outcome .

Thanks and Good Luck,
CML
