I have a large himalayn and he is over due for his fvr-cp booster by about 6 mths. He is a indorr cat only. Never goes out. Recently my friends male cat came down with some kind of illness. Started with alot of sneezing and ear twitching and wound up with some kind of absess and nerilogical thing and finally burst I guess and he has damage to his ear drum. The vets have him on antibot but dont know what it is. She asked if it is contagouis they didnt think so. Now her other 2 cats show symtoms of fatige, ithy ears and sneezing. I have notice my cat having a few little sneezes and shking his head some. These other cats are indoor outdoor. I have been there many times since he has been sick and have petted the others and have always tried to wash hands when ever I touch another pet before touching mine but you jbow how that goes may have touch something else that they have touched. she is taking her other to vet today. Hopefully gets some answers. Now i am worried about exposing kodie to this. I called my vet and of all times he is closed for vacation. We live in Columbia IL and it has been extremely hot over the last couple of weeks. Do you know what this could be? Should I contact another vet? Mine comes back on Monday but dont know if he will get him in. Please help

Can you check your cat's ears for me and tell me if they look clean and pink inside or if they appear to have any dirt in them?
