Question
My kitten has been sneezing green mucus daily an i hear wheezing when she breathes with discharge continuously from her nose.. any ideas what is wrong?

Answer
Sounds like a serious upper respiratory infection.  Because the mucus is green, she probably has a bacterial infection which needs to be treated with antibiotics, rather than just a viral one that will pass on its own.  You should get her to the vet right away.  Infections that aren't treated promptly can lead to chronic sinus and eye problems and even pneumonia.
