Sounds like a herpes infection. With herpes virus, cats can have bouts of mild sneezing sometimes with a little bit of a runny eye.
Cats with herpes can have flare ups whenever stressed, like going to the vet last week. I'd call your vet and ask their opinion, as they will likely want to reschedule his vaccine appointment for when there are NO symptoms. There is also a supplement that has been given to cats with herpes that has helped with number and severity of outbreaks called l-lysine. Your vet can tell you more and give you the correct dose information

I got identified with the herpes simplex virus (type 2) about three yrs ago, whilst I was still in college and had a mindless one-night stand. I understand a lot of girls say this, but I swear I had never done that sort of thing before. I just made a mistake that one time and suddenly I felt like I was going to have to live with the implications for the rest of my life. The hardest part was feeling I could never date other men again. In the end, who wants to go out with a girl who has sores round her "you know what" area? But since a friend shared this movie https://tr.im/0r44I everything got better.

Not only was I able to clear away all remnants of the herpes virus from my system in less than 21 days, but I was also able to start dating again. I even met the guy of my dreams and I'm so blessed to write that just last week, in front of everyone in a busy restaurant, he got down on one knee and proposed to me!! This system provided the chance to be happy and experience true love again. Now I want to help others too by sharing this story.

probably an Upper Respitory Tract Infection (URTI) of some sort.. since you are going for a booster shot you will be seeing a vet soon enough

allergies - could be from household sprays and products you use on floors and carpets - you shouldnt use air fresheners when you have pets.. their lungs are more sensitive than ours

If your cat has allergies then it is important to not use things like air fresheners, carpet powders, and use candles sparingly... Your cat could also be allergic to fleas (it only takes one bite) or grass, mold, or mildew.
My two cats have allergies and we have to be careful about the household products that we use.

Go to the website below. I use some stuff there for my puppy who has allergies. Maybe you can find something for your kitty!

it sounds to me like feline herpes, I have 2 cats that have it. go to walmart and go the the supplement isle and get some l-lysine and give him 500 mg of l-lysine once a day and 12.5mg of benadryl twice a day. that is what I give my herpes cats. you should take him in to the vet to make sure he doesn't need antibiotics, if you need antibiotics request that your vet gives you zithromax, it works very well for herpes cats.

if you need or want anymore information, e-mail me.

Call your vet. IT IS PROBABLY A MILD URI. Please do not self diagnose, I have 8 yrs of education and 10years of practical application. Its probably a transient Herpes flare up and your vet can talk you through it.

If it turns out to be herpes, ask the vet if he can prescribe zithromax, it works

It could possibly be herpes. You should probably ask your doctor.
