my kitty is wheezing ..serious or just mild asthma?
by freyafreya, Jul 06, 2008 11:41PM
When I approach my kitty (male, 7 years old, healthy weight) he sounds like he is making gurgling sounds. He breathes heavily after he eats but has no problem in day to day activities. He does tire out at play time easily . It appears he has mild asthma. But is it dangerous? I don't want to put him on steroids. I suppose I can buy that apparatus that they put on a cats face for albuterol inhalation? I'm worried it will develop into something serious as he gets older.

Just be sure to give kitty a healthy diet, keep his weight down, and act immediately on any potential infection.
