1. Dirty

If there is only a little black dirt in the nostrils of the kitten and it can be wiped off, it means it is just stained with dirt or a booster produced by the cat. The owner can soak the cotton swab or towel in warm water, and carefully remove the black dirt from the kitten's nose. If it is too deep, don't take it yourself, as it will damage the nasal cavity.

2. Infection with fungi

If a kitten has black spots in the nostrils, there are other symptoms on the body, such as local tinea spots, hair loss, dandruff, etc., it may be caused by the kitten's intranasal black spots caused by fungi. It is recommended that the owner consult his pet doctor in time and use antifungal drugs for treatment.

3. Cat's nose branch

If the kitten has a lot of black dirt in its nostrils and is accompanied by symptoms such as sneezing and runny nose, then it may be that it is suffering from cat's nose branch. In this regard, the owner needs to take the kitten to the pet hospital for treatment in time to avoid delaying the condition.
