My poor Florence - I really should try to post a pic shouldn't I? - she has been sneezing quite a bit over the past few weeks and, when I mentioned it to my vet, he said she might be allergic to something but keep an eye on her cos it could be snuffles. However there was no creamy discharge and very little "snot" around her nose, all clear really. Anyway, I was brushing the "angel" (not as she always tries to nip me when she doesn't like what I am doing - she's not nasty though) and when I turned her on to her back, I could see something moving in her right nostril as she inhaled and exhaled: when I looked closer, I could see that it was the end of a piece of grass, couldn't get it out with my fingernails so off goes Dr. Lizzie with surgical intent to get the tweezers - gently grasped the end of the grass and pulled out about 3 or 4 cm blade of grass!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I couldn't believe it! And the sneezing has definitely been dying off.
I had read that sneezing can be caused by FB's in the nose but I wouldn't normally dream of poking around, would leave it to the vet but this was so obvious that it was not a problem to remove. How relieved that little girl must feel to be rid of it, just wish I had realised weeks ago!!!
