Possible RI, any tips?

Just thought I’d give everyone an update on my little Abraxos. He is doing very well. Finally got the results back from the vet and it’s not a respiratory infection it’s actually a growth of Enterobacter cloacae bacteria. The vet said this is likely caused from poor/unclean housing and cleaning from the previous owner. Which makes sense as he did come to me a little underweight as well. He’s on antibiotics for 6 weeks and a nebulizer for 14 days but the vet is confident that he will make full recovery and is happy with the steps I’m taking to give him a good healthy home and life. When I got him he was 410 grams and he is already 445 grams. So we are on the right track! Just gotta get through the next 6 weeks of antibiotics.
