The other day i was holding my blotched and i noticed this clear thick mucus stuff coming out his mouth. Anyone know what that might be? Thanks

sounds like symptoms of what could be a serious respiratory condition(basically a cold)....do you handle her a lot?if so,had you noticed any audible breathing('clicking/popping' noise,whistling/wheezing),sneezing,bubbling from it's nostrils,parted mouth breathing?if so,for how long?if you catch it in time,susatined raised temps can heat it out of her.if it's been going on a while,say more than a couple weeks,get it to a vet asap.keep us posted.
