Six weeks ago my cat had a blade of grass removed along with grass seed from her soft palate. Before this no known problems . The vet gave her something to reduce inflammation. The only signs prior to this problem was wretching/gagging , snoring when asleep. These all came on suddenly. I got...

I hope the treatment helps , please keep us posted on how she is doing.

Ok thank you ,worth knowing that !

Yes I just hope she can come off the steroids , just abit paranoid that when i lower them (advised by vet) that it doesn't get worse again ,I was hoping after grass /seed removal inflammation would have gone down , she is eating and seems normal but abit lethargic with the steroids at times .

Oh glad she got better! My cat seems to eat ok etc ,I hope she doesnt have to stay on steroids long but I dont want the symptoms to come back if she comes off them too soon. The noisy breathing is now and then and when she sleeps she seems to have a slight snore but not all the time.

It was a blade of grass and the vet said grass seed ,she checked her chest ,the noisy breathing seems to come from the upper respiratory area where she has the inflammation in her throat
