If it's not one thing, it's another with our fur families, isn't it?
So my kitty Noelle has REALLY been sneezing a lot. The thing is, though, she's always had a bit of a runny nose, since I adopted her back in March. Like this is not new, just maybe a little more intense. In March or April, she had a vet appointment to update her on her rabies so I could take her across the border. I asked the vet about her runny nose type symptoms, but of course, she wasn't really doing it then, and he said she was fine. She was seen again in late August for a general check up, and she even had blood work run, as she is a "middled aged" kitty at about five years old. Everything came back great, and even her teeth were in amazing condition, and the vet was thoroughly impressed with her health. He seemed unconcerned about the runny nose/sneezing.
She never has off-colored mucus; it's always clear. She did blow a snot bubble the other day by accident, and I admit, it was sort of funny... =P She behaves normally, eats, does not seem uncomfortable, etc. I do have some Clavimox left over from a few occasions. Should I give her some? Would it help if she happened to have an upper respiratory infection? Do you think she maybe just has allergies? I know we determined Sophie probably does; my vet said her ears are a little waxier than some cats' because of her allergies. Could Noelle just be having allergy problems as well?
