I have a cat who just started doing the same thing. I took him to the vet on Friday after we'd thought his coughing was just a fluke. They x-rayed him and didn't find anything wrong. They suspected a URI, so gave him an antibiotic shot and Laxatone. He's still coughing and still not eating, which I'd noticed was "off" on Wednesday. I'm taking him back in tomorrow morning because he's not better and as of this morning, he's vomiting. He is getting water, but nothing else. He refuses to eat turkey bits, he refuses his canned food and of course, nothing else is going in. He's not got a hairball as far as I can tell. He coughs just like the cat in that video did.
I've had several well-intentioned people tell me everything from "it's his teeth" to "he's got a bone stuck in his throat". I know they mean well, but unless I hear it from our vet, I'm not going with that answer.
I will hopefully find out something in the morning.
