About a week ago my 13 year old cat, Missy, started sneezing and snorting. I took her into the vet and he said she had an allergy to something. I think it might be the cat grass I bought her a couple of weeks ago. He gave me chlorpheniramine tablets to give her, which is an antihistamine. I gave her the medication and then she has started hanging her mouth open and drooling. I noticed today that one eye was dilated and the other was not. It also appears that she is tilting her head to one side. Did she have a mild seizure from the medication or is it something else? I stopped giving her the medication and she isn't sneezing or snorting anymore. Everything else is normal. She still has an appetite and is using the bathroom normally.
She has been having issues for a couple of months now. I took her into the vet in February because she wasn't peeing or pooping and was dehydrated. The vet ran blood tests on her and took x-rays and said that he couldn't find anything wrong with her. I brought her home and she returned to normal except she started throwing up her food on a regular basis. I think she might have been eating too fast so I changed around her diet and started feeding her 3 small meals a day and that took care of the vomiting. A week later the sneezing had begun. She has lost a lot of weight over these past months so she looks pitiful. Now she is hanging her mouth open and drooling.
Has anyone ever experienced this with their cat? If she isn't better by Monday I plan to take her back to the vet (the vet office is not open tomorrow). I'm worried about her and not sure what has happened to her.
