Hello fellow cat lovers. My kitty Rudy has a problem. We just moved to our new vacant house, a mobile home, one week ago, in Northern CA (from Tulsa OK) and the first 3 days were fine...he was happy, and playing...also climbing up on tall kitchen cabinets...which were very dusty.., so we cleaned them off...but the last 3 days, he has been SNEEZING FREQUENTLY...the rugs have been seriously vacuumed, that was done before we moved in, and again after he started sneezing...he is fine otherwise..no nasal discharge, he is eating, playing, sleeping during the day, and up at night...and the sneezing has tapered off...but still frequent and I am wondering if it could be POLLEN. There are TONS of trees and bushes surrounding each dwelling...and since it is hot, I have been opening the screened windows in the morning. I also had to turn on the heater two mornings...and there is a swamp cooler in the center of the house, which I hesitate to use, since it is so noisy. Today I didn,t turn on anything but the fan in the living room...and there IS yellow pollen outside on a lot of things.
He has an appointment Wed am with a vet, since I don,t drive, and that is the first day I could get a ride or appointment.
Has anyone ever experienced their cat sneezing like this? Could the pollen be coming inside the house and causing this? Tomorrow I am not opening any windows to see if he is better. Again, there are NO other bad symptoms. We did have a very stressful week before we got here, staying in a hotel 2 nights, then on an two airplanes...where he stayed with me but I know he was very stressed out. This has been a HUGE change in both our lives..it is just the two of us...and the house is empty..but for a few items...like a bed, chairs and small table. Our furniture isn,t arriving untill this weekend. Thanks for any input, or advice.
