My 9 year old cat is sick for the first time.

Hi, I figured I would come here for some advice before I pay another fortune to take my cat to the vet.
​
I have 2 cats. Inkybus is a female, a year older than Junior, who is the male. She was sick with the sneezing a week ago and it has cleared up, but now of course Junior has the sickness. It is worse for him. He has constant sneezing and stuffy nose. He acts like he can hardly breath. His meowing is raspy. My mother thinks it's allergies but he has never gotten sick like this before and neither has Inky. It worries me because it's getting worse. I can see in his eyes he feels so droopy. Always sleeping a lot. He is eating, drinking and using the litter box. He has no discharge from his nose or eyes. What can I do to help him? Any advice at all would be great. Thanks.

You can try calling the vet you brought your other cat to and tell them this cat is now sick and see what they might suggest

Left untreated an upper respiratory infection (if that is what it is) can turn into pneumonia. That is life threatening.

I was afraid of that. We listened to his chest and his lungs sound bad.

Thanks for replying
