Cat sick: sneezing, sleeping, vomiting, green eye crust. What should I do?

Question

I'm not sure what's going on with my cat I think he is sick, he is constantly sleeping and sneezing, just the day before yesterday my brother said he heard it meowing like crazy and then he vomit all of a sudden. He's got green crust all over his eyes and can hardly see, I'm not sure what to do or give him so he cures.

This is a classic presentation of a cat with an upper respiratory disease. They usually do have a fever early in the infection and will feel bad. They also tend to avoid eating and drinking, because the congestion in the nose does not allow them to breathe properly. You can help the congestion by giving him a steam bath. There is a link below that has good information about how to do this and other helpful tips for this condition. http://www.wikihow.com/Help-Your-Cat-Breathe-Easier It's best if you can get your cat to a vet within the next day or two. While these infections are often due to a virus, they can become complicated with bacterial infections, which will make things much worse. The vet would be able to prescribe the necessary treatment to make him feel better and keep the infection from getting worse. I hope this helps and he feels better soon.
