: Seperate them first, as stomatitis is contagious. Next, keep them both warm until tomorrow. Some people do nasal flushing to help, but I'm not exactly sure of the best way to do this. So, maybe you should call a vet and ask, or find somewhere on the web that explains this a little more. I don't think you've got much of a problem, considering they're seeing the vet tomorrow, but stomatitis can be fatal, even with the right treatment.

: Let us know how it goes.

: : Hi guys,

: : I just purchased a pair of greeks and they arrived today. The female is really congested. She sounds like she has a very bad cold. I have contacted the people I purchased these guys from, within their three hour window, but still no response. The torts are scheduled to see the vet tomorrow AM. Is there anything I can do tonight to ease her breathing difficulies.

: : Thanks,
: : Nicole


Thanks, good to know. It makes me feel better that you think it is not that big a deal. I do not see any nasal discharge so I would be leery of trying to flush them. My vet is very good but unreachable outside of office hours. She is a good weight and seems to be a little more perky now that she is warming up. Unfortunatly, I have seen better packing jobs, they were both quite cold when they got to me.
