Hello, I have just adopted a cat. Her name is Butter Bean and we think she is between 2 and 4 years old. She was fixed a few days before we got her and has been sneezing and sleeping a lot. She eats a little but not a full amount. I'm worried about her. Is there anything I can do?

Hello, congratulations on your new cat. It sounds like she has an upper respiratory tract infection which are common especially in cats coming from shelters. She may need antibiotics as some of agents that cause this infection can be bacterial in origin (chlamydia). Other common agents include feline herpesvirus or feline calicivirus. Hope this helps and best of luck.
