Hello. Daisy may have been bitten by a raccoon or another cat, but cats do not get coon fever as we know the disease to affect dogs. Without a picture, I can not evaluate the coloration on her nose, so the best would be to have her evaluated by your veterinarian in case she needs antibiotics or other treatment. I hope she is feeling better soon & thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
