My kittens have cold symptoms. What at-home care can I provide?

Question

I have two cats tight under a year old. Both have what seems to be a cold. Stuffy nose, watery eyes. Both are eating. Not a lot but enough. They just seem miserable. Is there any at home things I could do to help their discomfort? Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Male | unneutered | 10 lbs

It sounds like your cats may have a respiratory infection. Most of them will clear up on their own, but if your cats begin to not want to eat/drink and become very uncomfortable, it may be time to have them assessed by your veterinarian. Antibiotics will sometimes help but these clinical signs are often caused by viruses. Your cats may also have allergies as it is the change of seasons. An air purifier may help if that is the case.
