My cat is warm, sneezing, lethargic, and breathing from his mouth.

My cat is really warm to touch, has nose block so he tries breathing from mouth, keeps on sneezing. He has become very dull, doesn't respond to our calls and is very lethargic, he also doesn't play with our other cat. What to do? Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Male | unneutered

This is probably an upper respiratory infection. it's very common in cats and is very contagious to other cats as well. It is treated with antibiotic eye drops/ointment and oral antibiotics for about 2 weeks. if left untreated many cats will end up blind or even die from the disease. I advise going to your vet asap to start the treatment right away.
