My cat is sneezing with a gooey eye. Is it an upper respiratory infection?

Question

My kitty is sick and I'm not sure what to give him. His eye is glued shut with eye duckies and hes sneezing. Pet's info: Cat | American Shorthair | Male | unneutered | 3 months and 25 days old | 2 lbs

This kitten should be examined by a vet. He has an upper respiratory infection - may be viral, like herpes, or bacterial. The vet will prescribe some antibiotics and some topicals for the eye. This is not something you can fix at home.
