I have to comment on this one...

DO NOT GIVE SOMETHING AN ANTIBIOTIC EVERY TIME IT IS SICK!!!
Get a vet to prescribe something if it is needed, but gosh have you ever heard of antibiotic resistance? If not read up on it.

See what happens is the over use of antibiotics causes bacteria to evolve resistences to it (this isn't a made up story, there are resistent bacteria everywhere now).

Pretty soon no antibiotics will work if we use them every time we or our pets are sick. Use them more responcibly.
