And i'm sorry but of course she's not going to like being penned or caged especially if you let her out at the first instance that she puts up a fuss! But if you want to sort her out then you need to do it so she doesn't keep making herself sick over and over. Once they get cat flu they will continue to get it because you really can't vaccinate them for it. So this will be a regular occurrence for you once every year if not more. It's best if you get a routine down to get hold of the virus and get her better as quick as you can. It wouldn't be fair to leave her to be ill for weeks at a time like that when you could sort it shorter by just being a little more strict and not such a softy! But it's easily done! We're all guilty, but at the end of the day we do what we have to do when it's the best thing for our babies!
She pooed in the bedroom as she was allowed in there as I hadnt got the Vet advice on how to contain the infection. I didnt let her out in the first instance she was in it for several hours, it had plenty of toys and of course a litter tray, food, water plus blankets. However she cried the whole time, and Im not going to make her do something she doesnt like as stress can cause the problem to get worse *as advised by my vet* I have been washing all the floors, sides after every 3 hours, and her blankets every day and replacing with new ones. Plus hoovering. The vet has given me brilliant advice and it is working a treat. Like I said my only problem was the litter tray thing, and she has eaten today therefore we shall see what happens when she passes and where she passes.
