Marshmallow is 10 months old, and 5 days ago I noticed she was sneezing 3-4 times in a row and would wash her face a lot. There was a little bit of clear/white nasal drainage from one nostril.
The next day she was sneezing like this about every hour, so the frequency was increasing. I called my vet and got an appointment for the next day thankfully. At the appointment Mel looked literally perfect, no teeth issues, ear/eyes/nose looked normal with no inflammation and no drainage or staining. Her lungs sounded good too. My vet said she didn’t want to prescribe antibiotics based on how she presented in the clinic. However I could call her if the symptoms were persisting/worsening.
That night the sneezing started up again. 3-4 times in a row with no drainage still. So I called and got antibiotics, she is on Bactrim 0.3 cc once every 24 hours and the concentration is 100mg/ml.
She is on her third dose today and is still sneezing! I got an air purifier, wiped down all the dust and deep cleaned their room.
She has been eating and drinking and running around like normal.
Since there is no discoloration of her fur and no inflammation or drainage is this something I should be worried about? Or is it allergies that will go away on its own?
Some other important info:
A week prior to the onset of her symptoms our house air conditioner broke, so we had the windows open during the night for 4 days. The temps fluctuated from 65-78 degrees in their room during this time.
Any advice or suggestions would be great
