Why is my adopted cat sleeping a lot with eye discharge and sneezing?

Question

Hello, I just adopted my cat.. she has this discharge coming from her eyes, it’s brownish. She’s been sleeping ALOT, she won’t really open her eyes or be active. She does eat/drink and use the litter box normally.. but other than that sleeps. She also sneezes here and there. Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Female | spayed | 50 lbs

It looks like Sky is recovering from an upper respiratory infection. That can cause tears, a runny nose, sneezing and lethargy. Give her a few weeks to get better and settle in to the household. If she doesn't improve then I'd take her in for an exam to make sure there is not a problem with her eyes or an infection that is causing her to sleep so much. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to help you care for Sky.
