Hi All,
A reminder - while our beloved fuzzbutts do not get the common cold they can get the flu from us and can pass it back to us. There appears to be a flu bug (swine flu aside) that is making the rounds. Wash your hands or use the alcohol gel before handling your fuzzies!
How to tell if its the flu and not the common variety cold? Most strains of the flu begin with a headache and body aches and pains and generally make you feel like you were run over by a truck. The headache and body aches generally appear before the sniffles, cough or sore throat - so be aware.
