It sounds like your cat is experiencing a persistent nasal discharge of clear liquid. While her behavior hasn't changed, the ongoing nature of the symptom might indicate an underlying issue.
- Persistent nasal discharge could be more than an allergy.
- Underlying infections or irritants should be ruled out.
- Consistent monitoring of additional symptoms is important.
Cats can experience nasal discharge for several reasons. It might be due to environmental irritants, allergies, or infections. While it's encouraging that her behavior hasn't shifted, a month-long issue warrants closer attention. It would be wise to consult a vet to explore the cause and ensure it’s not a sign of a more severe health problem.
