Hello. It is possible that Stella has a mild, chronic upper respiratory infection caused by a common feline herpes virus. You can try giving her a supplement containing lysine ( all major retailors will have this ), or you can discuss this with your veterinarian to see if a round of anti-viral medications will benefit Stella. This is not life-threatening & certainly something that she can live with. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
