Sounds like your cat has an alergy to something or a viral infection of some sort. Try cleaning up the house and feeding it some better cat food, like Natural Balance Ultra Formula or Innova Cat Food. Try also, getting some kitty fish oil and vitamins, that in combination with some better food may niot cure your kitty but it will help streghthen your cats immune system.
Other then that there is no much you can do. If you is really concerned take it into the vet, it should not cost you more then 60 bucks at best to get your cat looked at and treated.

Viral infection, probably. Take the cat to the vet now; he might die before Friday. This is an emergency!
Be careful not to catch the virus yourself, as there are a few nasty viruses that can affect humans as well as cats.

Cats can get allergies, and can also get upper respiratory diseases and infections, just like us. Call around and see if you can get him in sooner. He's obviously not happy.
And believe me, I know how much of a pain in the azs it is, the closest vet that doesn't work banker's hours is like a 30 minute drive away from me, but I've made that trip more than once.

Could be upper respiratory. You need to bring her in ASAP. Tell your vet it is an emergency, or just bring the cat as a walk-in. A good vet wouldn't turn away a sick animal.

I think I do, this happened to my cat, and what it was was just a blade of grass that got stuck up her nose, she sneezed it out at the vets office...

I do believe your kittie will sirvive till friday. The best you can do is keep her sneezing. That clears the nasial passages. Watch to make sure her nose don' t scab (bugger) over, and interrupt the breathing. Cats can breath threw their mouth, but it isn't natural to them, and they will struggle trying to breath threw their nose. You may have to pick it clean if it gets plugged. Hopefully, it just a virus, and Doc can give you some insite and meds to clear it up. Good luck.

if it is not a cold, it could be allergies. yes, cats and dogs do develop allergies. Best to have your vet look at your cat to be sure.
