Monkey has croup. She has been barking like a seal, mostly at night. It would be humorous, that barking noise, if Monkey wasn't sick and scared.
So far she has had 3 doses of an oral steriod, which has helped reduce the swelling in her throat/larynx.
She no longer sounds like Lauren Bacall after a long hard night of drinking, but she still has some coughing fits from time to time.
The coughing fits scare her. Last night she was coughing and she literally tried to crawl into the corner and hide. It broke my heart. I am so glad she is on the mend.
