u/Censeity

My 9-month-old female cat, Sisi, was recently adopted and has been having upper respiratory symptoms for the past couple days. She’s been repeatedly sneezing, sometimes with a little body “vibration” right before the sneeze, and seems congested. She vomited once, but it was after eating a small piece of plastic from a squeeze tube treat. She also has stage 1 gingivitis according to the vet/shelter records.

She’s still eating, but I’m concerned because she doesn’t seem very interested in drinking water from her bowl. I’m trying to monitor her food and hydration closely. I wanted to ask if these symptoms sound consistent with a common URI/kitty cold or if there are any red flags I should watch for that would require urgent vet care.
