My cat has a mild cold, lost its voice, and has yellow and clear nasal discharge
Your cat is most likely dealing with a cold or a respiratory infection, and feline rhinotracheitis cannot be ruled out. For a simple cold, keep it warm and give pet cold medicine; if it worsens, see a vet.
Fine the first day, then suddenly no eating and low energy; third day still not eating with lots of eye discharge; gave amoxicillin twice; fourth day still low but ate some cat strips, no vomit/diarrhea/runny nose. On the fourth sick day another kitten also stopped eating.
Based on your description, the cat likely has feline rhinotracheitis (herpes). It is contagious; isolate both and take them to a vet promptly.
My cat has drooling, runny nose, tearing, poor appetite, won’t drink, and frequent continuous sneezing
A cat cold can be treated with pet cold and anti-inflammatory drugs (amox-clav, doxycycline, Shuanghuanglian); never human meds (they cause poisoning). Keep warm, give warm water and protein/vitamins; if no improvement in 2-3 days or eyes/nose turn mucopurulent or fever, it may be rhinotracheitis/mycoplasma - see a vet.
My pregnant cat has a runny nose, occasional sneezes and reddish-brown eye discharge – what medicine?
A pregnant cat needs careful medication to protect the kittens. For mild rhinotracheitis, use vet-approved supplements and lysine to boost immunity; for severe signs, see a vet promptly.
Could my cat’s stomatitis be from dust in a new bed or from a chill?
Stomatitis has many causes - mechanical, physical or chemical irritation, or other diseases. Sharp objects, hot food or irritant drugs can burn the mouth; calicivirus or B-vitamin lack can also trigger it.
My cat is a bit listless but still plays, one eye barely opens with sticky discharge, face dirty, and feels cool – what’s wrong?
Lethargy, a shut eye and low temperature may be a chill or cold; use pet cold and anti-inflammatory medicine. Cat flu (herpes/calici) is possible and needs PCR. Low temperature may also mean low blood sugar or hypothermia; see a vet.
My kitten has nasal discharge it cannot clear, is uncomfortable and low in energy – what’s wrong?
Nasal discharge with low energy in a kitten likely points to a respiratory infection from herpesvirus, calicivirus, mycoplasma or chlamydia. Vaccinate and isolate if confirmed, and keep the kitten warm.
My cat keeps sneezing with heavy nasal discharge.
For feline rhinotracheitis, mild cases get lysine and anti-inflammatory medicine plus antiviral eye drops and nutrition at home; severe cases need a vet promptly.
My kitten from a cattery runs around on a cold floor and has sneezed for two days. Is it a cold?
Sneezing alone is unclear; check for nasal debris first and keep the home clean. If runny nose, eye discharge, fever, or poor appetite follow, suspect viral rhinitis and see a vet.
My cat sneezes often, now stuffy nose, warm ears/paws, licks nose in sleep, eats/plays normally, occasional cough, frequent grooming, congested sounds, reddish-brown eye discharge
Stuffy nose with warm ears/paws suggests feline rhinotracheitis, calicivirus, or mycoplasma with fever (over 39.5 C). Try pet cold medicine (amoxicillin-clavulanate, doxycycline), add lysine and vitamins, clean face, and see a vet if no relief.
