Hello, I recently adopted two kittens from the pound. Both of them, as well as the majority of the kittens at the pound seemed to have a cold.. many of them were sniffling, and sneezing.
We picked out two kittens that looked very healthy and loving so we bought them and took them home the next day. We get them home, and we find that they too are sick.
Here are their symptoms:
- Runny nose
- Sneezing often
- Sneezing/a lot of sniffling when they wake up in the morning before they finally get a big sneeze out
- One of them has their left eye shut all the time, and its nearly impossible to pull it apart without hurting him. His eye is fine once he gets it opened he is fine until he goes back to sleep and it reshuts.
- Running eyes, what looks like just a clear watery liquid runs in his eyes (both of them)
I read up a little and I saw something about a respiratory problem with cats who have watery eyes, or a herpes virus that causes the eyes to water a yellow/brownish color. Is any of this true?
We plan to take him to the vet tomorrow afternoon, I just need to put my heart to rest for the night.
