Just dropped Jinx off for her CT scan. She's a higher risk for anesthesia due to her lung issues so good thoughts requested.

I took her to another vet who instead of just saying "some cats just have runny noses" thought it was important to try to determine the underlying cause. Her lung issues are likely a result of constant upper respiratory and general ear/nose/throat issues.

The options were the CT scan for imaging as well as cleaning out the sinuses and possibly the inner ear if the scan shows something and getting samples and biopsy while she's under to try to get to the root cause or try random treatments and see if something works.

I decided to go with the scan. I stopped at the grocery store to pick up a few things on the way home and my bill was $11.11 so I take that as a good sign.
