Hi there,

Yep - the nose is normal :)

This may be one of those difficult cases, where the signs are causing some distress, and you are obviously concerned, but are just vague enough that pinpointing an exact cause may be difficulty.

For now - it does not seem like an emergency.
- No vomiting
- No diarrhea
- No weight loss
- No pain you can find
- Eating dry food
- No change in drinking
- etc.

BUT - As I tell all my clients - before spending hundreds on tests - NOTHING beats a good physical examination. If this were my cat, I would get a vet appointment just to make sure nothing is wrong. Make sure there is not a reason he is acting this way.

I would also check to make sure he is urinating ok as this is very important for male cats.

Please let me know if this helps or your have additional questions!
