Cat bought a year ago; always has brown tears, frequent sneezing, clear runny nose, sometimes severe wheezing like something stuck, but daily life and health are fine, always lively
For a year, brown tears with sneezing, runny nose, and severe wheezing suggest upper respiratory infection, commonly feline herpesvirus (rhinotracheitis), but also chronic rhinotracheitis, bacteria, calicivirus, mycoplasma, or chlamydia. Take it for full respiratory exams, best a respiratory PCR panel, X-ray, and blood work, then treat by cause.
Cat just received yesterday, about one month old, ~0.5kg. One eye won’t fully open, a white film, pupil unclear
From the photo, the symptoms suggest feline rhinotracheitis. Main signs: sneezing, more eye/nose discharge, tearing, red conjunctiva, poor appetite. Treatment is antiviral, antibacterial, and symptomatic; take it to the vet for interferon and, under guidance, lysine, plus care for its signs.
My cat’s eyes water, it is sleepy and listless
Watery eyes may come from eye disease, internal heat, conjunctivitis, or respiratory disease like rhinotracheitis or calicivirus; screen for upper respiratory infection. If the diet is heating, switch to lighter food. Sleepiness may mean internal inflammation; take its temperature, and if listlessness and appetite loss persist, seek emergency blood and virus tests.
Yesterday I found a cat outside and brought it home; it looks like a pet cat that got out, but it breathes poorly, nose blocked, sneezes like a cold, and has a scabbed injury on the nose. Photos 1–2 are from that night, photo 3 is this morning.
Breathing trouble, blocked nose, sneezing suggest respiratory infection or cat flu. Try doxycycline or amoxicillin-clavulanate and watch; if no clear relief, see a vet. A stray easily catches viruses and needs proper vet care.
How good is the cat vaccine Miao San Duo (Meow Three Duo)?
The Miao San Duo vaccine effectively prevents feline panleukopenia (distemper), feline viral rhinotracheitis (herpes), and calicivirus - all widespread and especially dangerous to kittens, so vaccination is very important. It is well recognized, widely used in clinics and catteries, with good effect and feedback. Generally start the first shot at 2 months, then every 21-28 days for 3 shots.
My cat’s eyes won’t open, has discharge, sneezes, and has a runny nose.
These signs suggest a cold or calicivirus infection. A vet exam and PCR test confirm the cause; treat with cold medicine or interferon as needed.
My cat has watery eyes and is sneezing
A cat cold usually comes with sneezing, a runny nose, coughing, sleepiness, and reduced appetite, so watery eyes and sneezing may be caused by a cold. But feline rhinotracheitis (cat flu) and pneumonia can also cause these symptoms, so those causes should also be considered. The owner should judge the likelihood of a cold from the cat's symptoms and the surrounding environment; if the temperature is low, a cold is fairly likely. In this case, you can give the cat pet-specific broad-spectrum anti-inflammatory medicine and observe for a while, while keeping it warm. If the cat's symptoms don't improve, take it to a vet promptly for appropriate treatment based on the examination.
My cat sneezes frequently with no other symptoms, and the nasal discharge is clear
Frequent sneezing and clear nasal discharge in cats may be caused by external irritation, a respiratory infection, or a viral infection. If there are strong odors in the cat's environment, they can trigger constant sneezing; in that case, move the cat away from the area or remove the allergenic smells to stop the ongoing irritation. In addition, a respiratory infection, feline rhinotracheitis (cat flu), or calicivirus can also cause these symptoms. If external irritation is ruled out, take the cat to a vet for examination and treatment promptly.
What are the symptoms of feline rhinotracheitis?
Main signs: sneezing, coughing, runny nose, lethargy, reduced appetite, clear fever, more eye discharge, and stuck eyelids; severe cases bring complications. Early signs mimic a cold and need PCR for diagnosis. Wrong treatment lets it worsen and may miss the best window.
Why is a cat panting?
Cat panting can come from respiratory disease, cold, rhinitis, bronchitis, or cardiopulmonary disease. For example, feline rhinotracheitis virus causes panting, cough, runny nose, and rapid breathing, even fainting. If it persists, take the cat to a vet for targeted treatment.
