ok, this isn't an emergency or anything, but i was just kinda wondering......what does it mean when at cats' nose is icy cold? just cold & wet? dry? warm? warm and wet?
i'm pretty sure that when it's cold, they're healthy, but i can't remember exactly

Here... or There... Hmmm
A cold, wet nose is just one sign of good health but by no means a complete indicator. Even a healthy ca can have a warm, dry nose occasionally. That is what I found from a quick search on Google.

Yeah, there is no certainty at all with temp/wetness of cat's noses. But if there is discharge, then they are sick!

Other signs of sickness are runny eyes, vomiting, losing weight, and not acting like themselves.

In my house it usually means that Bit or Scratch have been in the refrigerator again. We actually ended up having to put a baby lock on it so they don't get in. My little guys are learning to work together. It's kinda scary. I feel slightly outnumbered.
