Hi all I'm new here.
My cat Lucy started sneezing on Saturday morning last weekend. She seems fine though, her eyes aren't running, nose isn't either. She's not having trouble breathing, she's eating normally, drinking water like she usually does & walks around the house too.
Sunday she seemed pretty miserable as she stayed on the makeshift bed my man made for her on the couch, she didn't move around much that day. We went to get a humidifier & from then she seems better.
She still sneezes, but not as much as before we got the humidifier & she is more active than she was on Sunday. We've been keeping an eye on her to make sure there isn't any other type of symptoms that would alert us to take her to the vet.
I can't figure out where she got the sneezing from though, we brought back our kitten from the vet on Thursday morning, we had her spayed. Also, we have had to give all 3 of our cats ear mite drops & ear wash for about 10 days now. Lucy didn't seem to have the ear mites as bad as my boy & the kitten though as she didn't have much brown goopey stuff come out of her ears.
So we were thinking that maybe with the combination of the ear solutions which dry out the ears while killing the mites & the house being so dry from the LONG winter we have had, that it made her nose dry.
What do you all think? Could Lucy have caught a cold? Could she be allergic? Or could it be over drying out her nose?
I appreciate any thoughts/help you all can give me.
