Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Male | 11 lbs
I noticed my cat had a red raw nose last night and was sneezing. Today I noticed it got worse. I bought a cleaning solution because it’s Sunday and most Vets aren’t open. Should I be doing something else for him?

Hello and thank you for contacting Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. It looks like a wound or chemical / thermal burn to the nose. If Binx lets you clean the nose with antiseptic solution, you should do it every 8-12hrs. Please, take Binx to your local vets tomorrow as he may need treatment with a course of anti-inflammatory medications.
