    White powder around the nose of a lethargic Kitten

    My friend Cathy emailed me, and said that the barn Kitten Brandy is lethargic and has what looks like white powder or flaking around the nose.
    Shes about three mohnths old and all I could suggest was a vet visit ASAP, and it sure sounds like upper respiratory, and serious at that.
    Any advice , please.

    You said it right, Gary. VET.

    Flaky nose could be from dry cold weather...but the lethargy might be something else.

    Better safe than sorry! If no vets are open, hopefully the local Humane might have a vet on call.

    When you mentioned the white powder and lethargy and said she was a barn cat I wondered if she might have gotten into some of the lime or stall deodorizers?

    Prayers for Brandy, that this will not be a serious problem.
    I meant," said Ipslore bitterly, "what is there in this world that truly makes living worthwhile?"
    Death thought about it.
