Stitch, my wonderful 6 month old bottle baby, has been doing this weird cough-type thing for 24 hours now. It's hard to explain...it almost seems as if her diaphragm is spasming or she is trying to get a hairball up or something. It's not a normal cough. She is doing it every few minutes!! She has been eating and playing fine, except just now she seemed a little fatigued...I imagine it is hard for her to sleep when she is continually "coughin". I finally talked my husband into letting me take her to the vet in the AM, but in the mean time I am still so worried about her! And I am baffled on what is wrong and how I can help.
The only 2 "causes" I can think of are 1- I gave her alittle bit of hairball stuff yesterday and 2- she tried to jump yesterday when I wwas holding her and did not get a good push off, she kinda landed on her side and on her feet. But it wasn't form very high.
Any ideas on what is wrong?
I am sooooo worried about Stitch!
