Cat with blocked nose.

My very flat faced Persian has a cold. She's always a bit snuffly but it passes in a couple of days and she's fine. She's been really snuffly now for about 2-3 weeks. Any suggestions on how I can decongest her nose. (She had widening surgery a year ago, which has really helped) she's well in herself and not struggling but I can't bear hearing her sound all blocked up. I tried saline spray but she hated it.

Balsm not balance

Could it possibly be an allergy? Don't know if cars are the same as humans in their allergy symptoms or even feline asthma?

I do wonder if it's feline asthma as she coughs as well about once a day. But when she did it in front of a vet they didn't seem to concerned by it. I put extra water down by the radiators to try and humidify the room a bit more. They decided that it was their water and drank it instead!

Ahhh, I wouldn't risk the olbas oil / balsm then, sounds like they might drink it!

That was my first thought when you suggested it! Will see if you can get an olbas diffuser. I have a Karvol one coz I love the smell but never used it while I've had them as not sure if it's safe. Don't see why it wouldn't be. They aren't drinking that!!
