Hello to everyone...

I have an older spayed female cat. She is about 10 years old now, and quite heavy set.

For 2 to 3 days now she has been sneezing. She will have little sneezing fits where she will sneeze 3 or 4 times in a row.

Charlotte does not go outside, and never has been outside in her life.
We have one other cat which we have had for over a year now, and she does not go outside either.

Charlotte tends to be a noisy breather, mostly due to her size I believe, so I have not noticed any changes there. She doesn't snore any more or less than she ever has.
Her third eyelids (sorry, can't remember the technical name for them right now) have been showing quite a bit as well, with her right eye appearing to be watery.

Any idea what could be going on with my big girl? I know cats can catch viruses, but I don't know how she would come in contact with any when she doesn't go outside.

Thanks for any help you can offer,

Kim and Charlotte.
