Sneezing cat nasal discharge
Common Questions and Answers about Sneezing cat nasal discharge
sneeze
My cat has been sneezing and having nasal discharge for a month now. She has no other symptoms. She plays,she eats well. Just sneezes and has nasal drainage. Her eyes are good. No swollen or runny eyes. Is this allergies? I noticed she usually only sneezes when her nose touches objects or she sniffs. Sometimes mucous comes out with the sneeze.
t know that I would rule it out. I have had many patients with chronic eye or nasal discharge or sneezing improve with L-Lysine supplements. L-Lysine is an amino acid that helps reduce the replication of Herpes and helps to reduce the symptoms. It is worth a try for a few weeks. It usually takes 1-2 weeks to see effect and some cats need to be on it for months or years.
According to Susan Leck, a DVM who has seen cases like this before, if the teeth are bad, they can be cleaned and pulled if necessary. A nasal or sinus flush may be needed, and xrays of the sinuses are a must. Your cat will have to be sedated for these procedures, and at the age of 8 I would recommend doing some bloodwork (liver and kidney tests) to be sure that his internal organs are functioning well before sedation.
Hello, My cat is 15 years old and he has been sneezing all day! At first I thought it was cute the first time because he woke me up sneezing twice. Then, later on the day he sneezed like almost 100 times. He has heart worms and my parents gave him the medicine yesterday. But I think he may be sick or have a virus! Help me please!?
You should never give medicine prescribed for a human to a cat. It is very dangerous to the cat to do this.
How many days has your kitty been sneezing ? I don't know where you read on the internet that you can give a cat amoxicilian . You can't believe everything you read on line. You said you have no choice. Ah, but you do. You say you don't have money to take her to a vet. There are some vets that will let you pay a little at a time.
Cats typically spread URI viruses through sneezing and nasal discharge so if there is still discharge, your cat could still spread the virus. Many cats harbor Herpes virus for years and can start shedding again when stressed.
I would wait 3-4 weeks after the last vaccine booster is given. It is possible for the FIV+ cat to get symptoms of URI after vaccination. It depends on how well the immune system responds to the vaccine. Most likely, the vaccine will help limit symptoms though.
She was tired, as expected, when we got home for a day or so, but then started to develop this nasty reverse sneezing. We treated her for Kennel Cough, which went away, but then the sneezing came back and we knew it wasn't the case. At the time we were taking her to a different vet than where we are now, who really had no idea what was going on.
Hi, I had endoscopic transphenoidal surgery performed to remove a pituitary macro-adenoma on 11/29/10. The surgeons (ENT and Neuro) say the surgery went very well and they did not see or suspect a CSF leak. I had a LOT of bloody discharge after the surgery for close to two weeks, which the surgeons assured me was normal. Headaches went away a week after surgery but resumed, along with nose pain, after I started to sneeze about two weeks after surgery.
A couple of months ago my fiance and I got a cat, the first day I had an allergic reaction immediately, red eyes, sneezing and nasal congestion.
However, you should not use decongestants for more than 5-7 days at a time. Symptoms can also be relieved by using a saline nasal spray or a nasal spray that contains corticosteroids. Corticosteroids work by helping to reduce inflammation and congestion.
The golden rule for chronic stuffy nose is steam inhalation. Inhaling steam from a bowl of hot (but not boiling water) may help to soften, and loosen, the build up of mucus in your nose.
she was 15 at the time and had similar symptoms to yours...sneezing, nasal discharge...treated with various antibiotics etc, later discharge turned bloody and again we were sent to the Vet Hospital in the city...after testing and xrays it was determinded to be a sinus tumor, they didn't do a biopsy I was told there that 99% of sinus tumors are malignant. I was so upset, within 3 weeks she stopped eating and I had to put her down she was having so much trouble breathing by than.
Hi, welcome to the forum, one thing is certain that there is continued nasal irritation which is causing nasal sneezing. Sneezing is a protective mechanism which tries to drive the irritant out of the nasal passage.
The possibility in your case is any particulate or foreign body may be left inside which may be irritating the nasal passage. There are receptors present on the nasal lining which are activated leading to sneezing reflex.
was about 4 months old. very snotty and bloody nose all the time and sneezing. went through 2 round of antibiotics and lysine supplement with no improvement. vet said it's a "barn cat virus" since antibiotics didnt work and the symptoms may ease with time. year and a half later, still no improvement.
i want to help this nice little kitty but am stumped as to what to do. i find it hard to believe a bloody/snotty nose can just last forever with no cure.
My eyes are usually bad but for some reason this year its all about the sneezing. I have my appointment next monday but i dont know if i can wait that long to ask what i can take for them. Is there anything at all i can use for nasal allergies? I feel like im dying from these sneeze attacks ive been having.
SHE HAS SUFFERED FROM A CHRONIC NASAL CONDITION FOR ABOUT 3 YEARS NOW, HER SYMPTOMS ARE AS FOLLOWS; SNEEZING WITH A WHITE ,BUT WHEN INFECTED YELLOW DISCHARGE, FOLLOWED BY GAGGING AND RETCHING TRYING TO COUGH UP SOMERTHING. MY VET HAS HAD HER ON ANTIROBE 75MG AND BAYTRIL 68.5 MY VARIOUS TIMES. WHEN ON THE ANTIBIOTICS SHE DOES MUCH BETTER, BUT ABOUT 2 DAYS AFTER THEY ARE STOPPED THE SYMPTOMS RETURN.
I have been diagnosed with non allergic rhinitis and the sneezing and congestion happens mostly when I am ready for bed, or comes on suddenly during the night. At times I wake up because I am about to sneeze. I had a CAT scan, and my ENT doctor said my sinuses were inflamed. He gave me a 5 day steriod treatment and said he could only do it a couple times a year. I felt great for 3 weeks, now it's back to being as is was prior to the treatment.
We took her home in a crate (recently used by my other cat and my dog sometimes slept in there) and when we were in the car she started sneezing and one of her eyes was a little bit watery. Now that shes home she continues to sneeze often and her eye is still watery. Could something in my house be irritating her? Could she be allergic to something? Or did i adopt a sick kitten? What should i do? Thank You.
