Hey guys,
this is my first post as a momma with a kitty with asthma (still not 100% diagnosed but I think so...)
http://www.thecatsite.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=155081
Cello had to go into emerg all day yesterday due to what seems like a severe asthmatic reaction to something in some laundry soap he licked off his paws.
Now I'm supposed to make an appointment with my vet to start treating him but realistically I can't make the appointment until the end of the week but I'm worried about him.
He will randomly start wheezing pretty hard. Just for a couple seconds then stop (when I took him in the wheezing was laboured breathing and was non-stop and shallow) this isn't shallow. But i was wondering if this is an ashtma attack type thing??? or if this is much worse and he should be back at emerg?? He hasn't eaten anything since he's been home (hasn't even been home 12 hours) however if he doesn't eat by tomorrow night i'm taking him to emerg.
I also have antibiotics to treat what seems to be an internal lower lung infection so I'm wondering if the hacking could be signs of that? I've never had a cat with any kind of resp. infection before but I know it's common
anyways any advice is appreciated as always
it's 4am here so I"m going to try to get some more sleep
