Hi all,

My cat is a 11 year old male and has been struggling recently with sneezing/coughing.

I’ve been finding green snot around the house (particularly places where he sleeps) and just found one with a bit of blood in it.

He’s been coughing a bit recently too but was unsure if it was a hairball but have noticed the past few days that he’s been sneezing a lot.

I can hear his breathing sometimes and a few weeks ago I spotted him coughing up some white bubbly saliva and was hiding under the bed after. I haven’t seen anymore of it since but he hasn’t been around as much as he usually is.

Is this something that can be sorted at home or requires a vet visit? Should I be concerned?

His nose is crusty and looks sore. Should I clean it with warm water? I don’t want to hurt him or make it worse.

I am a bit low on money at the moment, if I do need to go to the vets are there any tips or advice on how I can get the most help with the least amount of money?

Thank you very much!!
