Hi there. It is very rare for cats to truly get influenza, but they can certainly get several types of upper respiratory viruses. You can take him into the bathroom when you shower to get him nice and humidified. You can use nasal saline drops to keep the secretions nice and thin. It's always a good idea to have an examination by a veterinarian to make sure he doesn't need any antibiotics . I hope he improves soon. Thank you for using Pet Coach.
