Hi everyone, BOO BOO kitty and I are new to the forum. I have never had a cat before, but recently my boyfriend found BOO BOO kitty on a large highway (we figured someone dropped him off). No houses within miles and a dog was trying to attack him.
But anyway, he is now safe with me and he is doing great. I do have a quick question though, when I took him to the vet he had a slight upper respiratory cold/infection and I received I drops and antibiotics. Well glad to say, he did get better. But ever since we moved into this apartment, he has sneezed. I was wondering, do cats have allergies and if so what could he be allergic too. Over the past several days, his eyes have been watery and a little glassy. Could it be my cleaning products, perfume, hairspray etc., or could he be sick? I have hard wood floors and my house stays dusty, could it be dust. Just need some new information so I can take good care of BOO BOO. Just let me know, I am excited about being part of the forum. Thanks, Heather

hi welcome to you. It sounds like he may need more time on the antibiotic. I would call your vet for some instructions. It sounds like the same symtoms for the upper respiratory. I am glad you opened your heart up to this new furbaby. May you have a long and happy life together. Let us know how it goes. take care

Thank You for responding to my thread. I feel very welcome and I am excited to share my life with Boo Boo kitty, I have some antibiotics left, I think I will take your advice and finish the medicine.

A very warm welcome Heather and Boo Boo!

Hope you'll like it here!

So good of you to have rescued him and given him a good home!

Yes, cats do have allergies and sneezing can be a result of allergies.

You may want to read this thread about sneezing -

If you have any more questions on sneezing and or allergies - could you please post them in the health forum?

Thanks!

By the way, if you have a picture of Boo Boo, why not make a cat page for him?
