You can try liquid Benadryl for rhinitis but that is about the only over the counter (OTC) medication you can give a cat. There is nothing you can give for a fever. Cats are extremely sensitive to other OTC medications and you can kill her with them. How do you know she has a fever? Without taking a rectal temperature you cannot be sure. Can you post again with more information and maybe we can help you better.
