So I just had perhaps the biggest scare of my life and I want to learn more to prevent it from happening. Well, prevent me from being so helpless anyway. Chances are, it'll happen again. Especially if I'm serious about dedicating my life to animals. And I am.
So I fed my cats like I normally do. They get a mix of dry and wet. They won't eat it any other way. Not when I'm the one feeding them.
I was talking to my mom when I noticed Ash acting weird. Shaking his head and pawing at his mouth. I should have reacted quicker. I know that now, but I couldn't tell what was going on. He had his back to me. I pointed it out the my mom and at first we thought something was stuck in his teeth so I put my finger in his mouth. Nothing.
We quickly realized he was choking. And I didn't know what to do. I don't know what happened, but he calmed down and stopped choking. He's fine now, but he very well could have died. I was absolutely terrified. I don't want to lose him out any of my cats. Any animal. So I want to know what to do to help a cat who's choking? What can I do to prevent myself from being so helpless and my cat from possibly dying? Please help me because I don't know if I can go through that again. I'm pretty sure I almost had a heart attack.
