Thanks again for everyone's help.

Over the last couple of days, only one sneeze, so looks like he's over it now.

Cheers, Mark.

Hiya and welcome to the forum

Sorry to hear your babies got the sneezes, just wondered if maybe you have any different sprays that are being used around the house..... the reason I ask is my neighbors cat is allergic to everything as his nasal passages get inflamed really quickly. The last time she bought a plug in air freshener and dint realize until I said its still an atomizing spray thats airborne

Did you have a real Christmas tree too, could be that!!

hope your little one is OK, let us know how he gets on

Kisses and purrs fromus all


xxxxxxxxxx

Thanks everyone.

His sneezing has calmed down somewhat, but is still there.  I'll see how he is tonight, and if he's no better, I'll take him to the vet.

All the best for the new year!

:welcome:

It might be worth just nipping him along to your vet, a course of antibiotics might be needed and also your vet can check his breathing and his mouth for ulcers etc

I personally would be tempted to keep him in - I dont know what the weather is like where you are, but it isn't nice here. I would ring the vets for advice in the morning if he is still sneezing, they might want to give him some antibiotics.
Please spay your cat

Cat with a cold?
« Reply #1 on: January 01, 2007, 12:52:37 PM »
One of our Manx cats has been sneezing since returning from the cattery after Christmas.  He seems slightly quieter than usual, but otherwise is fine - eating normally and going out - he even brought us a present of a mouse for our Anniversary on Saturday.  He is fully vaccinated (last done mid-November), so I'd appreciate any advice.
We're just keeping an eye on him at the moment, and hoping it will pass soon.
He's the one at the bottom of the picture.
