My cat had a viral cold and he's doing better now but I can see boogers in his nose. Not the black crusty kinds that I've seen some cats have. It's right up in there! His breathing seems good. I'm wondering if there is anything I can do to break up those boogers inside? Do you think he will sneeze them out one day?

(This is probably the only time I will ever wish someone could pick their nose 
)

you can buy non-medicated (children's) saline nose drops, sometimes sold under brand name Little Noses and give 1 to 2 little squirts per nostril once or twice a day to help loosen them.  You can also put her in the bathroom with a hot shower to make a steam room for 15-20 minutes a day as well.

my vet recommended saline drops as well.
