Tonsillitis & Upper Respiratory Infection

My poor boy Munchie has been sneezing green snot for some time now, we've done a couple of injections but they didn't work, so now we are trying Doxycycline pills for 2 weeks.  He threw up this afternoon, so off to the vet (his human Grandpa who is a semi-retired Veterinarian) he went.  He has tonsillitis and an upper respiratory infection, his temperature was normal.  He weighed a whopping 16# (EEK!  I've got to be more vigilant with his food intake).  He also has been limping on his front leg so he felt that too, and it has swelling around his elbow, so on some anti-inflammatories, if it doesn't improve will have Xrays taken at the vet I work for in a couple of weeks to see what's going on.  He's my kitten mill kitty so he has asthma, and has had both patellas surgically repaired.  None of my other 4 kitties are showing any signs of sickness though.

Here's a picture of him inside a soda box when he was younger (no way he'd fit now lol)

When does your cat sneeze the most? Most of the times cats vomit is when they gorge themselves on food. The tonsils are two glands in the back of the throat connected to the adenoids.

He sneezes all day long :-)  It isn't worse at any particular time.  He actually will have sneezing fits where he will sneeze dozens of times in a row.

I would recommend cleaning your home thoroughly. Try changing to a dust-free litter, too. It would also be a good idea to put a vaporizer in the room where he spends the most time.
