A friend of mine called me a few minutes ago with a real problem. Her cat is having difficulty breathing - coughing, rasping, obvious problems breathing. She called the emergency vet, and since she doesn't have $150 cash in hand, they won't see her. She is going to her regular vet first thing in the morning (7:30). The emergency vet did not give her any advice on how to help Angel though the night. To me (who is anything but a health professional), it sounds like Angel has asthma (I have asthma, and her symptoms sound very familiar to me). Is there anything she can do to help Angel though the night and make her more comfortable in her breathing?
The vet had previously prescribed Angel Clavamox, which really didn't relieve Angel's symptoms last time. They just got better on her own. She's had symptoms like this since then, but she hasn't taken Angel to the vet because the meds didn't do anything last time.
