Constant handwashing. I can't bear to crate her for that long, so I'm limiting her to her crate, the kitchen, and the hallway in between. I have plenty of baby gates, so no problem there. I'm going to put antiseptic wipes in every room.

Poor sick baby. I can't believe the shelter gave her to me in this shape. Well, maybe I can.

Oliver, a cat I adopted a few years ago, was given to me with a severe inner ear infection and cancer in multiple organs. I hope your baby gets better soon and you do not get sick.
