I adopted my cat Noodles from a shelter 3 months ago, and he had a few health problems-gingivitis, loose stools,and a weird cough. They were all treated, but he still has the cough. He'll be fine all day, then while relaxing or sleeping, he suddenly coughs, loudly and deeply (like a foghorn) 5-10 times in a row, then he's fine again. He's been seen twice for this specifically, and I was told he had a URI, which he got antibiotics for, then that he has asthma. He got a short-acting steroid shot for asthma, which seemed to work, so after a few days, he got a longer-acting steroid shot. I was told he wouldn't cough for a few months, but after 2 days, the cough came back. He's had all of his shots and was tested for leukemia in March. I'm at the end of my rope! I just want my little guy to get better! Has anyone had any experience with a coughing cat?
