Treatment of small colds at home is feasible. Your cat needs plenty of rest and stay warm and dry. All towels and sheets used must be cleaned and disinfected to avoid the spread of bacteria. Provide adequate water to your cat and heat up the food to enhance their appetite. In addition, cats need to eat high-protein, high-nutrition foods to strengthen their immune system. However, if your cat has very serious symptoms, you should take it to the veterinarian for examination as soon as possible. The veterinarian may recommend giving your cat medicine to relieve symptoms or to resist bacteria or viruses. Commonly used drugs include antibiotics, anti-allergic drugs, etc.

Here are a few options for cat cold medicines:

 1. Antibiotics If your cat has a bacterial infection due to a cold, antibiotics are one of the best choices for treatment. However, you need to use the medicine as recommended by your veterinarian and use it exactly as the treatment plan. There are many antibiotic types on the market for cats to catch colds, and you can choose to use them. 2. Anti-allergic drugs These drugs are designed to reduce throat irritation in cats and therefore reduce coughing and sneezing. The drug may also be able to relieve other allergic symptoms, such as runny nose and tears in the eyes. 3. Antipyretics Fever is one of the symptoms of certain cases of colds. Antipyretic drugs can relieve cat discomfort and fever symptoms. When taking medicine for a cat with a cold, be sure to use the medicine according to the doctor's instructions.
