This video was taken just one day after spending the night in an emergency veterinary clinic in respiratory distress. Sadly, the littlest kitten did not make it. These two kittens, however, seem to be responding to their antibiotics and recovering from the upper respiratory infection quite well. They are 18 days old, so 2-3 weeks.
please tell me what they did to help. My daughters 3 week old kittn has it today. Vet said it is a virus. she is sneezing milk. do i need to hunt down another vet today?

@appaloosa40 The best thing you can do is supportive care. Unfortunately, the most common cause is a virus, so I think your vet is correct. There is so little we can do for these guys except support them and help get them through the 7-10 day infection. Some vets will prescribe antibiotics but only if there is a secondary bacterial infection. The best thing is to make sure your kitten is eating and staying hydrated until the infection passes. I will send u a message with more info. Good luck!
