I don't know how you call it in US (I'm Italian, not native English speaker).
It's that thing when you apply a rubber mask on your mouth/nose and a noisy machine nebulizes the content of a vial into your nose. It is used for cold or stuffed noses.
It is of course over the counter (at least it is over here).
The machine is around 30 euro, the saline solution nearly comes for free
I did it to my cat for 5 years every morning. I used to buy special vials with eucalyptus and gingko biloba essences into saline solution.
My cat would allow me to apply the mask directly on her face, but in the majority of cases people would put their cat into the carrier, then put the carrier and the cat into a plastic bag (like the one you use for the waste) with the open side on the front. The mask is tied to the carrier grid, turn the machine on, close the open end of the plastic bag and wait for the fluid to be completely nebulized, usually in 5 minutes.
Don't worry, the cat won't die suffocated in the bag
I have seen right now that there videos on youtube. Type nebulizing a cat
