My kitty Lusa is between 5 and 6 months old. When I found her, she was about 4-6 weeks old and suffering from an URI. I feed her premium wet cat food and supplement with Viralys. She is UTD on her vaccinations.
She seems to go through these relapses of eye goop/sneezing/coughing.
The vet examined her about about 3 weeks ago and didn't hear anything in her lungs that would indicate asthma, thank goodness. She did change Lusa's eye ointment to another kind with a different antibiotic. We used that for 2 weeks and it seem to help.
Most recently, Lusa stayed with our pet sitter (a vet tech) while my husband and I were on vacation. She was OK when we picked her up from the sitter's, but now (5 days later) she's sneezing again and coughing.
I'm concerned that she's having an environmental allergy to something in my home.
For those of you with URI experience, do you know if allergies aggravated your cat's condition? Is there anything in addition to lysine that I could give her to help? Thanks!
