Ughhhh...it just makes me sick.. Well Fletch is hiding in the basement. He is still eating and drinking really well and wants to be petted. I just think he wanted a space of his own. He found a little box down there with bubble wrap in it. I'd much rather him have a nice comfy blankie, but he picked out his spot. I may try later to give him a blanket. His eyes may be the source of his infection, but I'm not sure. The eyelashes are continually irritating his eye, even though it is covered by a membrane. I always have to clean his eyes out, but lately they have been looking a little infected instead of just the usual runny teary looking stuff that comes out. they don't smell too hot either. I always assumed that it was the eyelashes causing all that. the vet thought so also. But maybe with his so called felv, it is gettting out of hand. I don't know. I am just trying to keep them clean and keep something in them. Well, I hope everyone is OK, and everyones kitties are just dandy!! Take care Marcia
