Hello. I am sorry that Tigger does not feel well. This sounds like one of the common respiratory viruses that kitties can get. If he is eating & drinking well, the virus may run its course in a week or so. Most times, though, we do start these guys on either an antibacterial or anti-viral medication, sometimes also starting a medication to help the irritated eyes. If Tigger is feeling pretty miserable, not eating well or is in danger of becoming dehydrated, he needs to see a veterinarian for care. Hopefully he will be feeling better soon.
