Re: [Felvtalk] Coco sneezing blood

[Margo]

Is your house currently using heat? The sneezing itself isn't so worrisome, but the blood may simply be from too-dry nasal membranes. Heat can seriously drop humidity, and that can be the result. Has she ever been diagnosed with herpes? Ask your Vet if Famciclovir   (an anti-viral) might be indicated.

Subject: [Felvtalk] Coco sneezing blood

Hey folks

Coco went through a bad time last year where she would not eat, dropped a lot of weight.  We got her started eating again and she has gained 1/2 pound - from 6.0 to 6.5 (she is a small cat, but I'd rather see her at 7).

Anyway, she is now sneezing blood.  I took her in to the vet Saturday and he tried one antibiotic, took her back on Wed and he gave her another antibiotic, which I am probably going to have to go rebuy tomorrow as I've managed to lose the bottle.

Anyway - she is now sneezing blood and has a very little bit of dried matter in the corners of her eyes.  She is eating, drinking, pottying, playing fine.  But she is still sneezing blood - sometimes a fine spray and sometimes hunks of bloody mucus which is very unnerving.

Has anyone had to deal with this?

Kelley and Coco
