Squeaky has a rash on both ears and a little on his nose. I just started treating the rash with an anti-itch spray. The rash is starting to heal but not he’s been hiding and shivering since yesterday.


It sounds like Squeaky is having a tough time with some discomfort, which might be linked to the rash and ear issues you've noticed. The redness, itching, and head shaking could indicate an ear infection or irritation, possibly due to mites or an allergic reaction. His behavior of hiding and shivering suggests he might be feeling unwell or stressed because of these symptoms.
It's encouraging to hear that the anti-itch spray has helped with the rash. Just make sure the spray is safe for cats and isn't causing any additional irritation. Keep an eye on the rash and the condition of his ears.
For his ear issues, you can gently clean the outer part of his ears with a damp cloth to remove any debris, but be careful not to insert anything into the ear canal. If you suspect ear mites, you might see dark, crumbly debris that looks like coffee grounds, which would require specific treatment.
The sneezing and itching could be due to allergies or an upper respiratory issue. Make sure Squeaky is in a comfortable environment, free from potential allergens like dust or strong fragrances.
If Squeaky's behavior doesn't improve or if his symptoms worsen, it would be best to consult a veterinarian. They can conduct a thorough examination and possibly prescribe medication to treat any infections or allergies.
