Hey,
I have a 2.5 month old male kitten, he weighs 1.3 kg, has had his first vaccine a week ago.( He was found outside as a 1 month old kitten and we adopted him).
Yesterday I noticed 2 brownish sores on his upper lip. He has no other symptoms, no sneezing, no sores inside his mouth or tongue. The only other thing I can mention is he sometimes has brownish dry discharge around his nostrils, that looks like a collection of dust. I am feeding him carnilove kitten wet food and nutriplus paste for the past 1 month and a half, he is a very active, happy kitten, gaining weight as he should be.
I know that mouth/lip sores can be an indication of calicivirosis or herpesvirus, however him having no other symptoms is really throwing me off. Is it possible that he has a viral infection that is being activated by recent vaccination? Maybe it could be allergies to his bowl? I am quite lost, maybe some of you had experience with similar sores (after this weekend I will ask a vet these questions). Adding a picture of the sores
