Hello, sorry to hear about Star. It sounds like she may have an upper respiratory tract disease. This can be associated with a tooth root abscess, a foreign body in the nose, an infection of her upper respiratory tract, or less likely a tumor within her nose. Star should be evaluated by her veterinarian soon, especially since her appetite is decreased, so that she may have the necessary medications and diagnostics she needs. Hope this helps and best of luck.
