i am new to cats i found a stray, what i think is one, and he is letting me pet him but is still skiddish, this is only day 1, but he opens his mouth sometimes like something is caught in it and when he is laying down it looks like he has a hard time breathing. i cant afford to take him to the vet for about another week or so. hopefully less but has anyone had any similar experiance like that. is it normal. and if its not and you had experiance with your cat what did you do or what is the possabilites of what it is?
