My main concern is does >he have a cold and if so is their a home remedy or do I need to take him It sounds like your fuzzy may have a cold. My guys are just getting over their colds and here is what I give them: * Pedialyte - this keeps them from getting dehydrated * Chicken baby food - in case their throats are sore and they don't want hard food * Amoxidrops from your vet - tastes like bubblegum (my guys love it) A friend's vet recommended Pedia Care infant drops - I have used it, too - so that might help. Low salt/fat chicken broth/stock may work. Gerber's oatmeal-like baby food, mixed with some Ferretone or Nutrical would be soothing for their throats and tummies. Good luck with your baby!
