Hello. My cat had a sneezing fit and now has a bloody nose. Not pouring but when he doesn’t lick it off there is a drop in his nostril. Still off and on sneezing. Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Male

This is probably an upper respiratory infection. it's very common in cats and is very contagious to other cats as well. It is treated with antibiotic eye drops/ointment and oral antibiotics for about 2 weeks. if left untreated many cats will end up blind or even die from the disease. I advise going to your vet asap to start the treatment right away.
