Clavamox can often make cats nauseous. You may want to talk to your vet about using a different antibiotic. The temperature of a cat's nose or ears can vary widely, and it doesn't often coincide with the ambient temperature. I have never diagnosed illness based on the temperature or moisture of a pet's nose! If you are concerned that Tikvichko has a low body temperature, I would recommend getting a rectal thermometer to take his temperature. Normal for a cat is 100-102.5*F
