Question
i notice shes got that what stuff in her nose, but im not able to get it off cause its inside her nostril... how can i help her???

Answer
Hi Kerri, is the white stuff crusty or wet and sticky? If its crusty its normal as long as she can breathe through her nose she is ok, and it will fall by itself, if its not going to fall by itself slowly and very softly drip droplets of water on her nose. The crusty white that develops in the nostrils are salt deposits and is normal.

If it is wet and sticky then Peanut most likely has a respiratory infection and needs medical attention for a proper diagnosis and treatment.
