Hi all,
My 14 yr old cat has a URTI- most likely from the herpes virus. I took him to the vet today b/c he had been sneezing since last night. The vet said his temp was fine and that he had an URTI.
In the past couple of hours he isn't sneezing as much, but now he is more congested and breathing through his mouth. He is finally sleeping next to me here on the couch.
I gave him the antibiotics ( just for prophylaxis) and some Lysine treats. He is still congested and I was wondering if running the shower and putting him in there would really help?
He ate his dinner, but I'm worried about him b/c he is an older cat.
Any tips that you think would help him breathe easier?
Thanks in advance.
