Swollen nose

[Santino123]

My cat has a swollen nose and I’m not sure , is it broken? Could anyone identify what it is I’m gonna take her to a vet. Has anyone faced something similar with their cat?

Did this appear over a course of days, weeks, months? Or has it always been there?

 

[Santino123]

Just a couple of days ago , I’d say 4

Is it getting rapidly larger, more swollen, getting better?

 

[Santino123]

No it hasn’t got any bigger yet , it’s stayed the same

Ultimately, you need to see the vet. Is there any possibility of trauma to the face? If your cat goes outside, possibly; if indoor, unlikely. Other possibilities are bug bites or allergies, but with allergies I have always seen other symptoms. If this is bacterial or fungal, it definitely needs medical care and you need to know what it is. You are going on one week with it, so calling the vet is probably the best move.

Yes, it could be either an injury or an insect bite, but either way, it needs to be checked out. cats have a really hard time breathing through their mouths, so this could be potentially dangerous if it gets worse. someone could have kicked her in the face if she was outside at all, it looks more like an injury to me......

Her nose is getting a little better but I noticed her pee looks weird.

What is in the pic? I am not sure. Any problem with the urinary tract is potentially a cause for a vet visit. What symptoms is she showing?

I looks like throw up! If that's pee, she does need to get in. Why did she pee on the rug and not in her box?
I'm so glad her nose is better, it must have been a bite.
