Our almost 1 year old cat, Elsa, had a raspy voice about 3 weeks ago, so about 5 days after we noticed we took her to the vet to get looked at, but at that time she had already regained most of her meow by then. They said everything seemed normal and it was most likely an upper respiratory infection. So about a day or two after the visit it was back to normal. Well also in those 2 days we adopted a new 4 month old kitten. The kitten soon after developed a cold and started sneezing. Maybe 5 or 6 days after having a normal meow finally, Elsa then lost her voice all together completely and became really tired. I called the vet up and they said she probably got a cold from the new one and to wait a few days and see if it clears. Were now on day 6 of no meow. She has slowly perked up and finally seems to be feeling ok and not so lethargic. She was chasing the new cat around all night and morning. But she still cant meow. Shes also been coughing like once a day, but this morning she coughed a little more than usual. Is something serious going on or does she just have a bad cold?
