Since then, we began treatment of all the cats affected, disinfected the foster home, and quarantined Napolean. Only Lenny remains ill, probably because he is the youngest and his immune system the weakest. He is still undergoing medication.
Napolean was also treated to reduce his symptoms and is now no longer sneezing, which is one of the ways the flu' viruses get carried into the air.
As such, we are lifting the lockdown fully. Visitors should however avoid handling Napolean if they are going to play with the other foster cats or have cats at home, unless they bring a change of clothes (if hugs are involved). Chlorhexadine hand soap and hand sanitisers are available to prevent transmission of the viruses.
We are also accepting new rescues - 3 will be arriving tonight, story soon - as the situation is under control. This will bring our foster kitten population up to 9, with one 'ICU' case i.e. kitten needing medical care (Lenny), well within our threshold.
So, if you are intending to visit - and bring gifts from our Christmas Wishlist? Or adopt a kitty? - you are definitely more than welcome, and safe to!
