Hi guys

I have a 14 weeks old female cream kitten (photo attached) I have two other sphynxes. When she arrived in my home two weeks ago the breeder told me just before that she had just gotten over conjunctivitis (herpes virus) and was on the mend. This week she’s started doing this weird snorting thing where she stretches out her head and neck it’s like she is struggling to breath... especially when she eats this happens.
I’m absolutely petrified that there’s something wrong but I cannot physically get to my vets until saturday.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance

Could be a URI. Nasal drip might be bothering her. Your vet will probably get her on an antibiotic, so I am happy you have an appt. if it gets worse, please see. Vet ASAP and do not wait, things can get bad fast. I recommend L-Lysine as well here is some info on it. L-Lysine for Sphynx Cats
