Hi everyone- My furr baby's name is Garfield and he's 9 1/2 years old in human years and he acts exactly like the cartoon character in the movies.
Garfield is very congested and has a runny nose and discharge coming out of his right eye-
This has been going on for several days and just yesterday I've noticed that he is refusing to drink his water,
normally we just give him cold milk (2%) whenever he walks into the door because that's his choice of drink. When he wants ice water , he goes to the fridge & sits there by his water dish & meows & pushes the water dish with his paw toward whoever is opening the fridge.
I stopped giving him milk the day before yesterday because I'm afraid that he might get more congested.
I've been turning on the asthma machine and letting Garfield breathe in the vapors when it seems like he is having a much more difficult time breathing for a couple of minutes each time- It works every time.
** My question to all of you: Is it normal to see some blood in the eye boogie & nose boogie?
P.S. Both areas of discharge are only from the right side, not the left.
I know that with really bad chest congestions (colds) this sometimes happens in infants & children so I'm thinking that maybe this is the case with my Garfield.
