Default Kitten Gasping for Air

My little kitten suddenly is gasping for air this morning. Dah bawa vet, tapi dia suruh bawa UPM Bangi. Jauh betul. Other than that dia tak tahu apa sebabnya. Ada siapa ada pengalaman ini? Umur about 10 months old.

Mungkin ada asthma kot...

Kucing mama saya ada sakit lemah jantung...dia pun gasping for air la...kalau nak mandikan dorang memang takut sebab ada masa kena fit...

Better g vet lain for second opinion kalau UPM bangi sangat jauh untuk u...

Hi....

Not trying to scare anyone but was goggling about cat gasping for air... it could be having problems with the heart.

My first exotic shorthair was also gasping for air and I brought it to Klinik Taman Segar where an x-ray was done. Apparently, one of his lungs collapsed due to FIP and I had to put him to sleep

Better bring your cat to a vet soonest possible Honey Bun. Between where are you located? Why not try Klinik Taman Segar which is near to Leisure Mall Cheras? They have complete facilities there

Good Luck Honey Bun and do update us ya... We will be praying for you!

It is quite sudden. She's still ok yesterday, eating well, but I did see her lying down and I thot she was just sleeping. This morning suddenly she was gasping and breathing heavily. The only vet open was the govt clinic in Shah Alam at 8 pm, who advised me to go Bangi. The other vets were still closed. So the real cause is unknown. Maybe like Fiffy said, it could be asthma, but this is the first time indeed. It was so sudden...

But when i see her like that, i prayed that if she is long lived, please cure her, but otherwise, pls take her without much suffering. She's gone a few seconds after that....

I am sorry to hear that Honeybun. But you know... my late Georgio was also like that. He was so healthy looking and nothing seemed wrong with him the night before he was gasping for air. All of a sudden, my maid noticed that he had trouble breathing and was gasping for air. I immediately rushed to Klinik See in Seri Petaling but was told that they had no x-ray and asked me to go to Klinik Segar so I again immediately rushed him to Klinik Segar. Upon reaching there an x-ray was taken and then it was found that one of his lungs had collapsed due to full of liquid. Doctor informed me that it was due to FIP (wet type). After his death, a post mortem was done and found that he had suffered FIP long before I adopted him. Perhaps Fiffy had FIP too

Poor dear Fiffy. I am sure she is in Cat Heaven now looking down at you. Take care Honey bun.

Tak ada pun Kuntum.....
Dia macam biasa je... cuma tak aktif sebagai kitten.
Diam je..... ingat dia memang macam tu.
Dia gemuk dan makan berselera.
Tu yang terkejut bila dia tiba tiba gasping for air tu....
Bila bawa g vet, x ray je ... paru paru dia sebelah dah collapsed dan penuh ngan air.
Doctor kata letak tiub dalam paru paru dia nak kuarkan air tu tapi tak berjaya. Next morning doc advise me to put him to sleep .....
I terpaksa akur dan lepas kan Georgio tu.......
Doctor wat post mortem dan bagitau dia dah lama menghidap FIP tu.

Thank you Fiffy, Felix, Kuntum, Maiden and Asramadonat for your wishes. I missed Sugar dearly, but she is more comfortable now...

Felix, thanks for sharing the info about Georgio. I will look out for the symptoms more carefully next time, though I don't see anything wrong with her earlier.

Thanks all!
