Is there anything you can do to help a cat get through distemper......... and before you ask, yes they have had their shots. One of my kittens brought it home from the vet after he was neutered. He somehow pulled through, I never knew that was what he had because it was so mild. Now I have lost three of his siblings and have two very ill. One is 9 months - an older sibling - and the other is a littermate 5 months old. Please is there ANYTHING I can do to save my remaining babies???
Keeping warm, giving pedilite......... what else? Vet is 1100 per kitten with no promises, I do not have that kind of money - I just spent tons having them all spayed and neutered!! PLEASE HELP

Without supportive fluid therapy, antibiotics, and intensive hospital care, it is likely that you will lose them all. The vet is your best option.

Are you sure it's distemper and not FIP ? Kittens can get FIP (NOT FIV, I'm talking FIP) and be severely endangered by it. Did the vet check? Were any blood tests done? Is he just guessing?
