[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 249921, member: 1963"] THis is very often a sx of a chronic upper respiratory infection. There are a couple that are very common in outdoor cats. They remain "buried" in the cat's nervous system until something (stressor) causes them to flare. I'd get him checked to make sure he doesn't have a foreign body in his nose/sinuses, but other than that there isn't much to be done. Do be aware that one of these diseases can also cause infection of the eyes and mechanical damage. Also, Bruce is shedding virus when these flareups occur, so other cats he is in contact with should be kept current on their vaccinations for "three in one". Bruce's vaccination status will have no bearing on flareups/virus in system since he's already infected. [/QUOTE]
