My cat has nosebleeds, bad breath, mouth discharge. Is it teeth?

I would recommend that you have your cat examined by a vet. These are not good problems to have, and could be caused by a number of things including stomatitis, FIV, oral or nasal cancer, bacterial or fungal infection, among others. The vet will do a thorough exam, and may need to run blood work and maybe x-rays to determine the cause.

Hi there and thank you very much for reaching out to us. When a cat presents to us with unilateral or one-sided symptoms such as the one your cat is displaying, we start to think of specific types of causes. Some of the things that can cause nosebleeds and left-sided issues in general of the head could be things like sinus infections of that side, dental problems on that side, cancerous growth in the nasal passage or sinuses, etc. I urge you to go to a veterinarian as soon as possible to get a complete physical and dental examination performed. The veterinarian will also probably want to do some school x-rays as well as rhinoscopy to look up the nasal passage or otoscopy to look down the ear on that affected side. Thank you very much for your question. I hope I have helped today.

Since this has bene going on for a while, I would get it checked by your vet as soon as possible. It could be a cold, he could have sneezed some particle of foreign material up into his nasal cavity, he could have a polyp in his nose, there's no way to know for sure without an exam with your vet. The greenish tinge to the discharge may mean he already has an infection going on. Your vet will do an exam, possibly lab work and/or x-rays to determine what's going on and based on these results will be better able to tell you what's wrong and give you treatment options.

Thank you for submitting your question regarding your Morris. I recommend that he sees a veterinarian. He could have a severe upper respiratory tract infection or he may have sustained injuries from a cat fight. Rarely, cats can develop a bleeding disorder that will result in blood coming from a body opening. The veterinarian will examine him and determine how best to help him. I hope this information helps!

Thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! It sounds like Nero has severe gingivitis. This condition can be caused by a condition that causes the tooth roots to be resorbed by the body, or a build up of bacteria and tartar around the gum line. This results in chronic infections an inflammation, which can be very painful and even result in Nero not wanting to eat. I recommend having Nero looked at by a vet as soon as possible to determine the cause of this condition and begin the appropriate treatment. He may need to have some of the teeth removed under general anesthesia. I hope this helps and that Nero gets better soon!

Thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! An elevated respiratory rate can be caused by heart disease or lung disease and can be an indication of difficulty breathing. High blood pressure can be secondary to heart disease and occasionally thyroid issues, both of which can be controlled with medications. I recommend having Molly seen by her vet as soon as possible, as this can progress quickly to pulmonary edema and even heart failure. She may need to be seen by a veterinary cardiologist for a second opinion and titration of medications.

Poor cat. Over 90% of cats with acute sneezing discharge are infected with herpesvirus and calicivirus. These viruses are usually exposed to cats when they are young and cats seems to recover from them but they continuously cause irritation, erosions, and inflammation of the upper respiratory tract (nasal passages) over time which can lead to mild nose bleeds. However there is also a possibility that your kitty could have a coagulation problems that is causing the bleeding as well. Therefore it is best to get kitty seen by your veterinarian for a coagulation profile in case kitty needs more extensive treatment to resolve this. If kitty is negative for any bleeding disorders or any other potential causes of nose bleeding (i.e. fungal, allergic, etc), then the extent of treatment will most likely be 1) Anti-viral medication (Lysine-availlabe over the counter at your local pet store or at your vet clinic), 2)Antibiotics- to treat any secondary infections present, 3)Steroid or NSAID therapy to help ease inflammation of the nasal turbinates. I would recommend scheduling an appointment with your cat's veterinarian soon to get the proper testing and treatment your cat needs for his care.
