Is it normal for cats to have nasal mucus?

It is normal for cats to have nasal mucus occasionally. Cats will produce a small amount of nasal mucus during the metabolism process. The owner can wet the cat's nose with clean water and gently wipe the nasal mucus with a clean tissue. However, if the cat has nasal mucus for a long time, or the nasal mucus is yellow purulent or watery, it means that the cat is sick. The owner should observe whether the cat has other abnormalities. It is recommended to take the cat to a nearby pet hospital for examination immediately.

Reasons why cats have nasal mucus:

1. Viral or fungal infection: Common viruses and fungi include herpes virus, calicivirus, Aspergillus, Cryptococcus, etc.

2. Foreign body stimulation: Nasal secretions may appear unilaterally.

3. Rhinitis: Allergic rhinitis can cause secretions in the nose.

4. The spread of oral diseases, such as tooth root abscess and oronasal fistula.

5. Cold: Respiratory tract infections caused by colds lead to increased nasal secretions.
