A cat can sneeze as soon as it feels irritation in the nasal mucous membranes. When sneezing appears abruptly, with no other abnormal signs, always think about the possibility of a foreign object in the nose. A cat that comes out can inhale plant particles that attach to the inside of the nose. If a runny nose accompanies your cat’s sneezing, your cat may have a nasal fungus or allergy. In an elderly cat, sneezing can sometimes accompany dental pain or a tumor. In any case, consult your veterinarian if abnormal signs persist. Also, be aware that the leading cause of sneezing in cats is a disease called coryza (or cat flu). My cat sneezes: what if it’s the coryza? https://hereglee.xyz/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/02-8.jpg First of all, what exactly is coryza? Coryza is a viral disease: two viruses (herpes and calicivirus) are responsible for more than 80% of coryza cases, in possible association with bacteria. When a cat with coryza sneezes, it can throw viral particles up to more than a meter! Coryza is, therefore, a highly contagious disease, especially in kittens, which are less immune-armed. If you adopt a kitten and it starts to sneeze a lot in the days after it arrives at your home, consult your veterinarian quickly. The stress of separation often triggers the appearance of the first signs of coryza. How do I feed a sneezing cat? A healthy, well-fed cat will have a more resistant organism that can better fight viruses and infections. Unless your cat is sick, he doesn’t need a special diet! Keep feeding him with his croquettes: Purina cat nuggets®, One, for example, which offers kitten croquettes; adult cat nuggets; senior cat nuggets…aw a cat in 6 stapes.
