Question
One of our cats has been sneezing a lot. He is a neutered male. He was a stray. We have had him since 12-96.
It is such a trauma for him to go to the Vets.
Dorothy -
I don't think any cats like to go to the vet. Nevertheless, if he is sneezing, then he should see a doctor. He needs a visit to the doctor because he is advanced in age. Have bloodwork done - ten years old is considered geriatric and bloodwork will help detect liver and kidney problems.
