Does anyone know how long it takes for a cat to get over a cold???

if the older one still sneezing and you have had it for 3 weeks, then yes, you need to take them to the vet. it is probably an upper respiratory infection. i took one of mine to the vet and he got exposed to it. a few days later he was sneezing. a few days after that, they were all sneezing. they need an antibiotic to get over it.

It 's probably an upper respitory infection. Next thing you know the eyes will be running. I too adopted 2 kittens a couple of months ago. Both were sick with the upper resp. Go to 1800petmeds.com. Look under medications and order yourself some Clavamox. It works like a charm, and you don't need a vet to get it. Save some money!!! The dosage will be listed on the bottle. It goes by weight. You can also try amoxicillin. Liquid or pill form. Any way you put it, mine still have their colds after doses of both and a trip to the vet. They are passing it back and forth to each other. Unless you get an antibiotic, it's not going to go away.

Trust me on this one.

I suggest that you take them to the vet and get them started on antibiotics. My kitten's cold did get worse and his symptoms went from sneezing to lethargy. The antibiotics helped, but it took about three weeks for the cold to vanish.

As long as they are happy, playing and eating, having fun you have nothing to worry about. Sounds like they might be passing a virus back and forth between them.

Things should resolve themselves in another week. If they develop more serious symptoms such as becoming lethargic, not eating or eliminating normally then you must move fast to the vet's.

Take them to a vet immediately Cats don't usually get colds it sounds like they might have a respiratory infection.

an upper respiratory infection is common in kittens. I would contact your vet in order to get anitibiotics started. These things can gets kittens down and cause pneumonia etc. if not treated.

They don't have a cold, they have a respiratory infection. It is serious. Take then to the vet.

7 to 14 days, exactly the same as a human.

wouldn't hurt to call the vet and see what they say, kittens can go downward pretty fast

You can give them the supplement L-Lysine. You can find it in a health food store. Crush it and put 500mg in there food. It will help rid a cold...
