One emergency vet advised that I try putting some saline (or water, because I was lacking saline) into his nose. I tried it with a spray bottle, just a small amount. But then another emergency vet said that could have been dangerous if it aspirated into his lungs. Have I said ugh yet? | Saline comes a bottle that looks like nasel spray. It comes out in a more of a mist. A bottle dropper would work I'd think....
Ugh is right.
