I would have Hendrixx seen by a vet for his symptoms. You are correct that he could have respiratory infection, and he may benefit from medications from the vet to help him with his illness. You can also try putting him in a room with a humidifier or bringing him into the bathroom when you take a shower. The steam from either may temporarily help him with his congestion.
