Hello. I recently adopted two 2-year-old boars from a shelter. One of them (Charles) started sneezing a bit a few days ago, and at first I thought nothing of it because my room tends to get very dusty and hairy (thanks to three dogs). However, I recently moved into my college dorm with the piggies and noticed today that Charles was sneezing a lot more and had a runny nose. I cleaned his nose and it didn't keep running but that got me worried. I scheduled a vet appointment for tomorrow at 4; I'm just nervous about if he'll make it till then (I may have read a few too many scary things about URIs). Other than sneezing, he seems fine - no weight loss, loss of appetite or lethargy. Also, his mucus was very clear.
Is there anything I can do to help him until his vet appointment?
(Also, I should probably note that when I transported him to my college, I used dog piddle pads which have baking soda. He's a nibbler so he probably chewed on them a bit.)
