You start them on benadryl to help with any allergy component. See link below. Also if they are really congested and they will tolerate it, you can hold each of them in a small bathroom with the shower running so they can breathe in the steam. This will work as a humidifier and help to break up the mucus. If they won't tolerate this, you could just put them in a room with a humidifier. Do not use any type of medicine in the humidifier, just water. I hope this helps! https://www.petcoach.co/canigive/cat/benadryl/#!
