Simple at home TLC for a Cat with a Cold | Runny nose

[@boxxyroyal5019]

Thank you so much for calming me and my kitty cat. He had a little cold right now he’s been sneezing and sniffling all day for the past few days and he so sleepy. I was worried bc I thought his condition was fatal and I can’t afford to take him to the vet just yet. But he’s doing a little better and I’m comforting him through this crappy time

[@KittenSchool]

Hi there, I am so happy to hear your kitten is doing better and that these tips were helpful. If he's still congested try putting him in a steamy bathroom for a while, too. That can really help and the kitties find it soothing!

[@ImSPOTon]

I know ....its just so worrisome isn't it. Your fur baby probably has the worst behind them after 3 days . I am worrying as well right now not knowing whether to take my girl to doctor and put her through that stress ....its such a trauma and a cold just has to sorta run its course

[@tirsaperez8386]

I feel the same way about my girl. That is why I'm here to see if there is anything I can do in the meantime. She is playing around with her semblance I wonder could her semblance get it from playing with her. I don't want to break their fun, but I also don't want another one getting sick 😒

[@morrows10]

Are the two viruses zoonotic?

[@tinabrown8823]

My cat has the worst sinus issues. When we adopted him from the humane society they said he’d been there 2 years bc nobody wanted a sneezing and wheezing cat. But he’s just the sweetest baby I’ve ever had. He lays in my arms like a baby every night. Prob is, nothing works for him that the vet has given him. I started using a humidifier with eucalyptus and that gives him more comfort. I’m going to get some saline and try that. He hates his face touched so good luck to me in this one. Thanks so much for the video!

[@tammywalker118]

I love how kindly you treat the cat. Great advice from someone who obviously cares for the cats in their care! I love to see it. :)

[@stevenalexzander768]

i realize I'm kind of randomly asking but do anybody know of a good website to stream new movies online?

[@kasonadrien1585]

@Steven Alexzander i would suggest Flixzone. You can find it by googling =)

[@PeachyHopiee]

Thank you for this one. We have a senior cat and he's actually pretty affectionate only towards me. He's currently having colds and this will surely helps.

[@str8outtacostco53]

You can hear the sweet baby purring throughout this whole ordeal. I'm sure Oscar is very happy at his furever home 🥰

[@nc7072]

His not purring . He is having trouble breathing. That’s why I’m here for my cat :(

[@jcs6206]

With sick cats, 250 milligrams lysine 2x per day seems to help quite a bit... adding 200 milligrams daily to their food seems to help prevent URI and even UTI to some extent. It tastes pretty salty, so you might have to add it to a strong flavor (a little beef gravy for example) for your cat to want to eat it. It's a very affordable and easy to find supplement

[@ImSPOTon]

Man ! Buster is a SAINT .......even my sweetest boy Mitchell wouldn't have stood for q- tip up the nose !

[@rambus8875]

She DID NOT insert the Q-Tip, only squeezed a drop from the end.

[@adbrosa7310]

omg thank you so much my little baby boy has been sick for four days and this video really helped! i love that you took pictures of the things you used for Buster. i find the medicine and it’s actually affordable. i called several vets and it’s like they wanted me to pay money instead of giving me recommendations so that i can find it for cheap. thanks cat community

[@flyback_driver]

Hey, thanks for making this video. I've never had a cat as a pet before but my landlord preferred if I did not get a large dog. Went to the shelter and adopted an old cat that had been there for a while. It worked out nicely because he wanted a home and he helps me out with my PTSD. Anyways, when I got him he was overweight and I had to put him on a diet plan from the vet. He is always vocal about food and when I noticed he wasn't finishing his food I started to worry. He became reclusive and then very quiet. I'm still going to take him into the vet tomorrow but this video got me thinking about his lack of sense of smell. I bought some canned soft food that has a potent smell and once I opened the can he meowed. Made me happy to hear his meow again and now he's eating. Anyways, thanks for posting this. Its given me ideas to helps him eat and maybe comfort him.

[@Car-fm4fo]

Buster is such a handsome cat. I hope he is happy in a good home!

Aw man! I needed that Qtip trick a few minutes ago! Def will do that next time. I doused a cat. Lol thank you! I have 3 with URIs right now and wanted to make sure I wasn't missing anything. After I brush, I'll wipe them down with a warm wash cloth. Also, if your cat likes to drink warm water.. I fill a pitcher halfway with hot water and let em stick its head in to drink the water. Mini nasal spa.

[@robinmurray5266]

Thankyou. My Mr. Weasel is sick. I did the eye cleaning and nose. Now I'm keeping him warm and he did have some warm chicken broth. He's 11 and still a tree climber and bird chaser.

[@KittenSchool]

I hope Mr. Weasel is feeling better! I bet the warm chicken broth is very comforting for him. Sending lots of loving and "get-well" vibes from Kitten School!

[@robinmurray5266]

Kitten School Thankyou. He's still resting and staying warm. Good news is he was looking out the window and started 'Chatter Cussin" a bird. A true sign he's bouncing back. I even have one of my layin hens under the weather. She's being kept in the garage and nested under a heat lamp. This darn cool wet Northern Ohio weather hasn't been good for anyone.

Carolyn Kosin He's is frisky and frolicking like a kitten again. His 'cat cold' over. But I have been putting AC vinegar in the cat water dish and in my chickens water dish. Thankfully it's finally warm up and there's not standing water all over. I can even finally get in the fields and start planting corn and soy....it's been a rotten wet cold spring here.

[@FranDevine]

This is a super video. Thank you so much for giving me some comfort about my cat's cold.

[@MichaelWi]

Thank you this is very helpful. I also put my cat in the carrier case, place a hot bowl of water in front of the cage door, throw a towel over the whole thing and make a tent, like e little steam room for them. I let them stay there for about 15 mins to let them breathe, warm humidified air. They always calm down when I do this and they choose to stay in the cage even after I've opened the door for them.

[@LokiPii]

Thank you for this video! My tabby recently got sick with a cold and I've been wondering what I can do to make her feel better. So this is very helpful! I've also read that adding a pinch of L-Lysine to their food will help keep FVR at bay.

[@KittenSchool]

Hi there! I am so glad you are finding the videos helpful while caring for your sweetie. How is she doing? And yes, L-Lysine seems to help in my experience. I regularly give it to some of my older cats who occasionally flare up with cold-like symptoms as a result of the virus.

[@Hellcat_650]

@@KittenSchool my 14 year old female cat has recurring sinus infections. 4 in 2021 and 2 so far in 2022. The vet just keeps giving her antibiotics but for these past two bouts of sickness, doxycycline hasn’t helped. I want to know the root cause because I know she’s older and I worry :( I just feel lost without much help from the vet besides giving antibiotics each time. I appreciate your video. I’ve used so many tissues on her but I feel so bad for her little nose.

[@bonkerwonker5086]

I mix a little bit of lactose free milk with natural honey. Apparently unpasteurized honey is a powerful antibiotic and safe for cats to eat moderately. My cat eats about a quarter teaspoon a day for about 3-5 days. My cat is 18 years old now.

[@xSammywhammyx]

Thank you for this video! i have a very sweet stray cat that seems to be having a flare up of FHV and calicivirus. eyes and nose were very leaky and she sounded congested when breathing. i ended up bringing her to the bathroom with steam and a humidifier to helps loosen some of that nose congestion. Also, used saline in her nose, she hated it at first, but it seems to be working. also gave her a little brushing today she was covered in grass and twigs and didn't seems to be grooming herself. i got her some L-lysine treats for immune support but she refuses to take them -___-. but at least shes back to eating and i think she will be totally fine it just takes some time :)) glad i watched this video to confirm i was doing everything right! yes!!

[@xSammywhammyx]

@Baby Kimi FHV is not usually life threatening as long as you are treating it (which you are) although once your cat has it they will have it for life and the symptoms may flare up during a stressful time for your kitty. it is very common in cats just keep your kitty comfortable and follow your vets directions :) hoping your cat gets well soon

[@ishaashaikh5348]

Was she is eating when you found her? My kitten is not eating and the vet has given up on him. I'm keeping him warm and used saline nasal drops today. I hope he starts drinking milk.

[@krazykris4785]

Very interesting..thankyou for sharing

[@marieemarch]

My cat has same thing. A chronic virus. Many rounds of antibiotics. He also does a l-lysine chew daily of 500mg. Best price is online. I break it into pieces and he gets in morning. Stress is a huge factor. I don’t leave him home alone anymore. He always has someone to come and visit or check on him. Great friends so he only goes a day alone if I need to travel. He gets a lot of love as the only pet. Last year was very hard when I fostered two dogs. Never again. That really triggered him and it’s been steady with symptoms ever since. Keep house clean. Diet is key he is on a limited Ingredient diet reduced allergies and he has IBS. He hates taking antibiotics and vomits after so he never quite gets over it.

[@aubreymcknight3330]

I have a four week old kitten group that was brought to my rescue at birth with mommy. They said mommy became very angry and dangerous around their young children, which tends to happen with young kids and cute kitties. Now it is spreading around my rescue like wild fire and only two of the kittens are considered really sick. One of them just started having breathing issues today and is struggling to sneeze cause she is so stuffy and her poor ribs hurt and are tender from having issues trying to breathe. So I am very grateful for your videos you have on here. They are very helpful right now. I have had one of my kittens who is four weeks older pass away from refusing to allow help he attacked us frequently and caused damage more to us than his self, but he did not pull through in the end due to fear. This is very helpful. You should do a video on hot to treat kitties with fevers and how to handle those types of situations.

[@rangersmith4652]

Thank you for this. Very helpful. I'm not one to run to a doctor for my own cold, so learning how to probably avoid a vet visit for my cats is quite useful.

I don't have any of the nasal spray so we had a steam room visit for a few minutes and then I gave him his nightly medication. He seems to be doing better ,, No more noises so far,,, I rescued Milo from a over run home with too many kittens and poor living conditions. He is about 7 weeks now but was 3 weeks when I found him..

[@presouz5]

@@KittenSchool thank you and you’re not gonna believe what happened to cause this in March I witnessed him throwing up I don’t know if it was a hairball or ? Seems he got a piece of dry food stuck in his back nasal/sinus? . He only gets a couple tablespoons of Young Again zero carb dry food as a treat throughout the day. But when he threw up he was kind of aspirating trying to clear his nose and clear his lungs it was so scary for him & me. Well three days later he started sneezing and draining from his right nasal passages. So I took him to the vet she said well he’s an indoor cat so it can’t be an obstruction. And I said well it might be some dry food got stuck in his nasal passages. And I told her what I had witnessed. So she put him on some anabiotic that started with a V and that did zero. So I opted for a nasal flush which seemed so brutal to heal from. She was telling me he may sneeze blood I was like freaking out thankfully he never sneezed blood but he did have some dried blood on the end of his nose for three days and I kept removing softly with a warm wet soft Kleenex But after the third day he was doing really well. But by the sixth day he was back with bubbling right nasal passage and at least it’s clear. But it’s only on the right side and so the vet put him on Doxy for 10 days by the seventh day I noticed a little bit of improvement so on the 10th day I emailed her if we should do another round so she put him on another half a round of Doxy. Seems he’ll have a good day & he’ll have runny bubbly days and oh I forgot to mention taking him to the vet about his nasal passage they found out he has a heart murmur. He’s a rescue Maine coon mix. Anyway they wanted to do a heart scan and they found out that at this point it’s not hurting him which is good news. When he came home from the vet which was his second time in a few days he really wanted me to hold him I was holding him and loving him and a piece of dry food came out of his nose! Now it was by now soft and it was scary but I did get it out and I just wonder how much is left up there. I’m wondering if his body is trying to encapsulate whatever is up there and making some kind of tumor or something it’s just got my mind blown I don’t know what to do. So that’s an ongoing struggle and I thought by doing little remedies saline infant formula would be mild enough. And the vet approved that I didn’t know you could use full strength. Just want to get him well.

Thank you! My Theo looks just like Buster, a d so sweet as well. I also run my hot water in the shower for a few minutes to create steam in the bathroom to help clear his nose. I then feed him in there.

Beware FIP: On February 9th, 2017, our 2-1/2 year old male cat, who was a stray found running loose in the road as a small kitten, died from a disease that's similar to FIV, but not exactly the same. I never heard of this before. He lost weight. A couple months later his behavior changed and he stopped eating. It took three trips to the vet, three different veterinarians examining him, over $600 in lab work, before we hit on the problem. Stray kittens in animal shelters and those found running loose outside and taken in are usually tested for FIV, but not FIP. It's a separate test and can be expensive. Our cat had tested negative for FIV as a kitten and again when he got sick. It was a devastating loss as he was a very special cat. You can google "FIP in Cats" for more information. It's another disease that's out there in the stray cat population and probably passed along to kittens from the mother. It does not show any outward symptoms for a couple years and is always fatal. We thought we had a perfectly healthy cat. Such was not the case.

[@KittenSchool]

I knew someone whose beautiful Maine Coon mix died from FIP. It was a horrible disease and they did everything they could, but sadly it is almost always fatal. Fortunately FOR NOW the disease is pretty rare, although there can be isolated outbreaks. Thanks for the comment and I am sure it will be helpful for others who want to know more about cat health.

Hi! I wanted to show a few simple ways to care for a cat suffering from an upper respiratory infection aka "kitty cold". There's lots of other techniques I'll show in later videos. What are some cat health issues you are having?

[@karjam9459]

Kitten School Hi! my cat has a pretty bad URI right now and we can't give him any medicine because he is going to have his heart tested in two weeks. Is the saline safe for him? I have three of my cats that have it right now and only one is antibiotics. I would just like to help them breathe a little better. I think the steam showers are helping but not enough. Thanks!

[@KittenSchool]

DISCLAIMER: I am not a vet. However, I believe that the plain saline should be fine to use on your kitty for his stuffy nose. Just be sure to go slow - especially if he has heart issues - so as not to stress him too much during the process. Steam showers are good, but the saline helps a lot and can get them to sneeze, which forces out any clogged passages. You can safely use saline drops a few times a day. They hate it when the drops are being put in but it seems to help them in the long run. Good luck to you and your kitty!!!

Hi Zara! Here's a video I did a while back about caring for a kitty with an eye infection. Antibiotics is the best treatment for eye infections, but there are things you can do at home to help curb an infection. Keeping the eyes clean is one, and here's where I show how to do that. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qnWqq5eLibqXhKs

My 18yo cat is susceptible to URI... I've found l-Lysine is helpful for him when he gets these every other year. Now if I could just cure arthritis.... his little bag legs don't work so good anymore.... he must be in some pain. Breaks my heart.

[@WildlyFantastical]

Cat Cosequin is good for arthritis, and found in most Walmarts

I also used a nasal aspiration to suction out excess mucus, it works well. I. Remove excess mucus around the nose, and then apply a thin layer of baseline prior to the suctioning.

[@KittenSchool]

I have done this too! It works great for small kittens. Thanks for the comment!

Hi, I have a cat who I brought home that I really have any history of, but last week she became very lethargic, wouldn't eat, and was coughing and making a lot of that racket, and the vet said URTI, and gave her an antibiotic shot, as well as tested her for feline leukemia, which was negative. This was almost 5 days ago, and since I got her home, have had her isolated in the front bedroom, because I have another cat I didn't want sick too. He has been very unhappy he can't see her, and she is much better, eating , drinking, using the litter box, and I was wondering if I should continue to keep them apart, since she is only occasionally coughing. She never did show signs of her eyes or nose being affected, I saw no discharge or anything. Thank you.

this is the best home remedy ... I'm so worried about my cat sneezing.. i lost one due to CKD.. i don't want to lose another

[@adrianmorris3772]

Lovely video. You're so kind. Very helpful. How old is this cat and is he ok now(buster).? Best wishes from Adrian in Sheffield England 😀

doxycycline made one of my cats so ill she wouldn't eat. i had to force feed her each time I gave her a dose to protect her stomach. She had Hemobartonella and had high fever but the doxycyline made her worse in that it messed up her stomach so bad she wouldn't eat. She eventually got better.

[@fatimasakharkar9863]

Another suggestion is to try an all natural cat vitamin. Balanced Breed is a great company. They make all natural vitamins for cats and they contain good ingredients (not extra fillers) with lysine included. Lysine is great for cat cold prevention and help!! Highly recommend. Let me know if you try it
