What should I do if my cat has shortness of breath accompanied by a phlegm stuck?

Mondo Pets Updated on 2024-03-06

Recently, a fan reported that his newly purchased two-month-old silver gradient silver dot cat showed symptoms of increased respiratory rate, accompanied by slight shaking and sputum jamming sounds, and even occasionally a loud phlegm jamming sound. The cat developed the above symptoms three days after arriving at the house and has not eaten or drunk all day today.

Based on this information, it is preliminarily determined that the cat may have a respiratory infection, but further understanding of the situation is needed to make an accurate diagnosis.

The living environment temperature of the cat is large and the temperature difference between day and night is large, and the air conditioner is turned on at night until 255 degrees, and the air conditioning is turned off during the day. This temperature difference may cause cats to catch colds, which can induce respiratory infections.

Low air conditioning temperatures and cats' inability to adapt to rapid temperature changes are important factors in the development of the disease in cats.

Although the fan failed to provide the ** when the cat was stuck in the sputum, it was learned from the description that in addition to respiratory symptoms, the cat also had a red scratch next to the ear, which was suspected of suffering from ear mites.

In addition, the cat has not undergone any professional examination or medication since the onset of the disease**.

The cat has completed three vaccinations, but has not yet been dewormed.

While vaccination can help improve a cat's resistance to certain diseases, it does not completely rule out the possibility of all respiratory infections, especially those caused by bacterial, mycoplasma, chlamydia, or viral infections.

In view of the current situation, it is recommended that in the absence of medical treatment, you can first use broad-spectrum anti-inflammatory drugs for pets, drugs for respiratory tract infections, and oral drugs for clearing heat and detoxification, cough and asthma to observe the effect.

At the same time, keep the cat's living environment at a constant temperature of 28-29 degrees to avoid getting cold again and aggravating the condition.

When the cat has no appetite due to physical discomfort, the owner can use the needle to feed the cat liquid food, such as cat food paste, to ensure the cat's basic nutritional intake, and with the improvement of the disease, the cat's appetite will gradually recover.

Considering the health needs of cats, if the indoor temperature is lower than 28 degrees, it is not recommended to continue to use air conditioning; If you want to turn on the air conditioner, the temperature should be set between 28-29 degrees Celsius to ensure that the cat does not get cold.

If the human body feels too hot, you can consider leaving the cat alone in a constant temperature room, covering the quilt is not effective in preventing the cat from catching a cold.

In order to prescribe a ** plan for cats more accurately, it is necessary to know the specific weight of the cat in order to calculate the dosage. On this basis, three pet-specific drugs were recommended: a broad-spectrum anti-inflammatory drug to control respiratory tract infections, a heat-clearing and detoxification, cough and asthma oral liquid, and an antibiotic for respiratory symptoms.

Please adjust the dosage according to the actual weight of the cat.

While taking a conservative approach to the family, it is recommended to pay close attention to the changes in the cat's condition, and arrange to take the cat to the doctor for a comprehensive examination and targeted ** as soon as possible.

If your cat's condition continues to deteriorate or does not improve significantly, it is important to seek help from a veterinarian in a timely manner.
