Laryngitis in Cats

My cat has been very quiet since having what I assume was a bad hairball. Gave him some Hartz hairball plus. He was fairly lethargic at first but has since been acting and feeling better and playing. Butb still not talking. When he does its a little weak. Far as i can tell theres nothing stuck in his throat. Hes indoor only and has not been outside. Only change has been the kitten we brought in. And they have been getting along fine. Just worried cause he won't talk.

My kitten that i have had for 3 weeks does not meow at all. When she does try to make a sound she ends up coughing and trying to catch her breath. I dont understand what could be wrong with her

hes has been spewing a lot, has been acting and running slow and his meow is croaky and quite. And all day hes been coughing and last night he was to, is there something wrong with him?

My cat is about 2 years old. I noticed her meow sounding hoarse. She eats, drinks, plays, and acts the same as she always has. It's just her voice. I'm not sure if could be. I don't have money to take her to the vet so I need some remedies.

Hi there, does anybody have an update or conclusion?

Our male 5-year old has had something puzzling for last week. Lots of excess saliva, licking lips (but not in the stressed-out way), spitting up clear froth with none of the convulsions or hacking that one associates with hairballs. No vomiting of food. Long periods of being withdrawn and in physical discomfort alternating with being more like himself. He's been eating, drinking, and toileting. The vet gave him a shot for nausea a few days ago, and he's stopped with the saliva since, but now had a sort of wheeze.

Most worryingly, he's the most vocal cat in the world, and he hasn't said anything in the whole time. His purr has come back over the last few days as he's come back to himself more, but he doesn't talk anymore. A few days ago when I was taking him for his nausea shot, I thought he was retching in his cat box, but after a while I realized that he was actually trying (and failing) to miaow to me. Again, he's usually super-vocal when he's in the car, let's me know every few seconds that he hates it.

We got a new kitten about 7-8 weeks ago and they get on GREAT, they play together loads, and when the adult has had enough he goes off. Not a stressful relationship, they search out each others company a lot, and cuddle.

But some of the symptoms mentioned above seem to chime with his, and we do have a new kitten in the house (although its about 2 months rather than 2 weeks). I'm wondering if anybody has any kind of medical update from a vet?

Thanks!

with me being a young girl im scared for my kitty Shadow she has been slow , gagging alot like she is trying to throw up but cant and her meow is very scratchy im really worried and scared for her.

My cat, Leroy, is mostly an inside cat but goes outside and stays on breezeway.
He suddenly had no audible meow and he’s a very verbal cat. He would not eat.
I took him to the ER vet. He was dehydrated and was given an IV anddiagnosed with back pain and prescribed a mild pain med. Three days later he was no better and I took him to his regular vet who diagnosed him with severe back pain, lower back on right side. He was given a stronger pain med.
He now is eating soft wet food and his energy has returned but he still can’t meow...he tries but only a puff of air comes out. He swallows hard.
Given both the back pain and can’t meow could this be trauma? Both have been going on for over a week.

My cat is a indoor cat but he has lost his voice or at least its very weak but he's still eating and drinking. If he rests it will it be OK? He does normally meow a lot when it's meal times and he meows until he is feed

I have him when he was 60 days old now he is 19 months (arround).He don't use to say mewo he is one of the most quit cat I ever have. He just love to make warning noise when see some other cat and after he is adult he make noise sometimes at night .NOW sometime he make coughing type voice and act that something is in his throat which he want to vomit. now he eat less, less aggressive, got watery eyes with brown liquid out (like always from childhood), now use to have white sticky substance on the corners of lips(from last 3 month nearly).

*complete in door cat weekly Park visit for hour or two.

*got round shape little swelling thing inside his neck from 5 months back. vet recommend that no problem if it's not increasing in size and it's in same size still from 5 months(other coughing, vocal issue stared just 2 week nearly.
* I never heard him saying proper mewo from very childhood vet say his Persian breed plus you are fulfilling every need so he never have to say mewo.

for the past week almost my cat kiwi has been not acting her self and very tired and not eating or drinking as much... you could tell something is wrong and that she is sick... she also would gag like she was going to throw up but never did and she is constantly swollowing like her mouth is getting watery like how ours gets before we throw up..she was week and when she would come to me to lay next to me it would take her a min before laying all the way down like something hurts or is uncomfortable in her stomach or somewhere... Also a few days ago when I noticed all these symptoms I was rubbing her throat and that would make her start gagging and try to throw up but she never threw anything up....she’s been doing better now she’s eating and drink more normally and isn’t so sickly looking or acting and not as much gagging but it’s still happens.. her constant swallowing has almost stopped but now when she meows it’s almost like she lost her voice. she’s my baby I have had her since she was 8weeks and she is now 9years old.. she’s fixed and is indoor now she has always been a indoor but also outdoor cat up till a year ago.. she is also a very big female that weighs 14.5 pounds... she isn’t like round big but she’s a long big cat the only fat part is her stomach but it’s more like loose hanging skin for some reason... she has had history of worms also,tapeworm. just a few months ago she threw up a fully grown one that I took to vet with her they gave her medication like flea medication that u put on back of next but I don’t know how that helps with inside her stomach?????

Bella has been coughing and wheezing for 2 days already. Yesterday I took her to emergency room because she wasn’t eating for 2 days. The vet said it might be asthma. She gave her medicine for her to start eating. Yesterday she ate a little wet food and today too but I have noticed that her meowing is not getting better at all. They are low and raspy and she has always been very vocal. Any recommendations out there???? Please email me any response- [email protected]

My kitty Jagger is about four years old indoor and deaf a few days ago the neighbors brought their new kitten to meet him, now his meow ( which was loud and quit loud has become low and scratchy. He still eats and drinks,but seems lethargic. He gags once in a while and has had mucus he has coughed up. Any advice

My cat completely lost his voice over a week ago, it did come back after a few days but it is now a very weak meow and sometimes still disappears occasionally. He is normally a very vocal cat, forever meowing at us (loudly). He's still got a good appetite and seems fine in himself. Will his voice return fully or should I take him to the vet? It's been two weeks and he still struggles to meow.

Mr Pickles is 14 years old. He started off with a cough for two days and now has no voice at all. The week this happened he had a full panel blood work that was perfect and his booster shots. The same week I brought home a kitten who was vaccinated and had the ac unit changed out that caused a little dust. He also had a long fall/jump off of the loft. He had an exray that was normal. He is not doing any of his normal activities like following me around or sleeping with me it’s very sad and I’m worried his breathing is wheezy. Advice please

Hi There! Last Aug 10, we adopted Jewel. She was 13 weeks when we got her. Aug 12 she was hot already, and ate not much. Aug 13, she didn’t eat on her own so Force feed her and also gave her water via syringe. Aug 14, went to the dr. And she had fever and infection due to her spayed incision and maybe on the same day they gave her vaccine so they gave us amoxicillin good for 7 days. After 3 days she got better and until now she is awesome. But then I have notice when ahe is meowing its so weak or sometimes cracky or hoarse can’t describe it but i think thats the right word. But her appetite is good and she is active

This is wild! After I brought in a kitten my 2 older cats lost their meow! Not sick. Its so strange and also the outdoor stray we feed also? Somethings going on. I thought I would check if anyones cat has lost meow and then I bump into this forum! We need to stay on top of this!

So I brought in a pair of kittens about 2 1/2 weeks ago. Sisters from the same mother. They're both 10 1/2 weeks old now and my older cat is about 5 years old. One of the kittens came to us with a hoarse meow. She's quite vocal and very active and eats really well. Our older cat wasn't too pleased about her new sisters and was constantly hissing and grumbling at them. (She is still working on it but she is getting better) Now, the kitten with the hoarse meow still has the hoarse meow and is still active and loves eating and playing, but now my 5 year old cat is hoarse and less talkative. Nothing else has really changed in her except that shes getting closer to the kittens. Is it possible the one kitten came with something? The other kitten is perfectly healthy aside from being a tad thin even though she eats well.

I should probably add that all are strictly indoor cats and never ever go outside and the kittens came from someone whose cats had kittens and needed to be homed. I'm fairly sure no worms or parasites are involved as I haven't seen anything out of the ordinary in the litter box.

My cat was fine last night, but this morning. She meoews and there is no sound. Can I do anything for her? Without taking her to the vets? I can't afford a vet right now.

I’m not sure what she has but she gets outside a lot. She came to the door late last night and as soon as I let her in she ran to the food. Noticed a lot of sneezing last night. This morning she’s just laying down and won’t eat anything I put in front of her. And she just growls as usual when I touch her but her voice is all raspy.

My cat is about a 10 month old female and is an indoor cat along with our 9 month old Male. We gave them a flea treatment last night as they have somehow gotten fleas. This morning she was her usual talkative self and perfectly fine. By the time we got back home from work, after getting settled we noticed that she was not being nearly as talkative (almost nothing) and the few times she did her voice was hoarse and crackly. Just in typing this she has sneezed twice. Could it be the flea treatment? Or something I should take her to the vet for?

Hello, my cat is almost 2 years old and it is an outdoor cat. He comes home only for food and sometimes for sleep.It's been about 2-3 months that his voice has changed. He had a very loud and clear voice but now he has a weak voice. He has no other problems. He eats as usual, sleeps as usual and he is as playful as he has always been. So, my question is, could this change of his voice mean that there is something that we should look at?
Thank you very much for your time and the great help you provide !

I just rescued 2 kittens that are about 4 months old from my local animal shelter, they are sisters so I had no choice but to get them both. They didn't given me much info about them when I adopted them. After 1 night in my house, one of the girls started sneezing and having congestion in her nose and eyes. 2 days later the other sister has the same. Today both have lost their voice and are miserable and won't eat much. I can't afford the vet for both of them and I just have no idea what to do. These girls are already like family to us.

My cat is about one years old and we got him from a shelter about 2 months ago. We were originally told that he had feline herpes because of his UPI and eye discharge and we were given medication for a UPI, but the vet never did any tests to make sure that it was Feline Herpes. He has been coughing a lot though and has had a runny nose for the past month and he also has a very raspy/hoarse meow. Was he diagnosed incorrectly? Does he have laryngitis? I am a college student and the Laryngitis treatment sounds very expensive.

My cat who is normally very vocal. He talks to me all the time and answers when I talk to him. But th last couple of days his voice has become weak and quite. He's got a strange meow

My cat who is about 3 years old who is often very talkative has recently been vomiting and his voice is gone hoarse and really quiet compared to normal. He's indoor only but about a week ago he got outside in our back yard for about 45 mins.

My cat is suddenly hoarse for about a week. She got locked in the closet for a few hours and when she cane out she had no voice She is not vomiting and is fine otherwise. No symptoms like I read here

I have few cats having the abovementioned symptoms. They kept themselves away from me, have bad breath, not eating and drinking much, and have raspy to no voice. Is there any home remedies or first-aid that could be given to the cats before we brings them to the vet?

My 5 year old male Sebastian has been gagging for the past 2 days and now although not gagging he has completely lost his voice. Took him to the vet and they ran blood tests and full GI x-rays with barium contrast. Found nothing except a little constipation. He's well hydrated no temp. Gave him antibiotics as a precautionary. He still has no voice. He is eating and drinking and normal bowel and urine.
What could this be? I miss his voice.

My cat is acting perfectly fine. He’s happy eating everything is normal except he can’t meow and he’s very vocal. My roommates say they here him meowing all through out the day. Could he just be over using his voice?

My 3 year old Maine Coon, Skittles, has completely lost his voice. We noticed a couple of weeks ago that he seemed hoarse, but with no other symptoms, I decided to just watch him. He is an indoor cat so he isn't exposed to anything harmful outside of the house. He is eating and drinking with no weight loss. Tonight he threw up for the first time and sounded wheezy after getting sick. He has completely lost his voice now. Please give me some idea what could be wrong. I'm out of work right now and can't afford a huge vet bill. Thank you!

Can worms in a cat affect the voice? I noticed my cats meow was sounding different, like she was hoarse. I then found vomit with what appeared to have spaghetti like worms in it. Since I didn't see which of my cats actually had thrown up I am assuming it was her. She's also started attacking the others, I looked up roundworms which appears to be what she has but didn't know if this was related to her voice,

My cat is not eating anything..she only drinks water once for a day ..sitting in one corner all day ...became very skinny ..she has loss of appetite..licking nose rapidly and sleeping all day ..throwing white foam when having anything...please recommend some home remedies for her.

Kitty’s voice is very faint, sounds like something is in his throat. I often here coughing, gagging, sneezing, and labored breathing. His appetite has changed significantly and he hasnt been eating much. I’ve seen it progress over the last few days. He seems in pain now, should I get him to a animal hospital ASAP or schedule an appointment with the vet??

My cat has had a hoarse meow that seems to be diminishing since yesterday. Otherwise she is acting and eating completely normal. Still playful, same appetite, breathing normal as well. Could she just have some sort of laryngitis that will go away on its own?

Our house cat has been escaping outdoors on a regular basis. He came home the morning after a rain storm. He lost his voice for about 2 weeks, was sneezing, urinates in laundry and moving boxes. He now has his voice but its raspy, still pees in laundry with a heavier urine odor and constantly holds his mouth open in a weird way. His appetite is normal, doesnt sneeze anymore and his eyes and nose aren't runny or have never been since this happened.

My cats meow has suddenly changed to a very quiet squeak and slight discharge from corner of eye can be seen . Haven't heard him sneeze or cough . Is this just due to jack's age or something more serious. He seems to be eating ok. He is approximately 12 years old which I have seen before and usually comes and goes.

my 12 year old male cat who is VERY talkative has developed a "raspy" voice. He acts no different other the change in his voice quality. Eating, drinking, running, playing with the other cats in the house. All are in-door cats 100% of the time. How long should I watch the change before bringing him to m vet

Is there something in there at home care that I can do to help make my cat better without having to go to the vet and paying hundreds of dollars? My cat Alex went missing for about a month and when I got his back he lost his voice, I can't hear my baby's voice anymore. Please help me get my baby's voice back.

My cat meow changes and looses it . Sneezes. Coughs. Has difficulty sometimes swallowing and breathing while not eating.
Lowers head while standing . Slepts a lot more than normal.

Hello I have a 2 year old female cat. Over the past week she has become raspy, and a bit irritable. I have scheduled an appointment to see her vet this week. I do not know if I should take her in earlier as an emergency or wait. I also have two foster kittens that have been around for about two weeks and dont know if that may have impacted her in some way.

My cat suddenly has a rapsy meow and not meowing as often as he does. He is an indoor outdoor cat. He has no sneezing, coughing, "running" eyes, runny nose,no werid, raspy or trouble breathing. He is trying to make his great ecapse outside but we have been keeping him in. Today would be day 2 of this.

My cat lost his voice. He tries to speak but can’t. He has had a bad cough for a couple of days and threw up once. He is still eating and drinking fine though. Since he is eating and drinking fine this eliminates the possiblity of a blockage in his throat I believe so I’m going to wait 5 days before bringing him to the vet. Is this an okay plan?

My kitten seems to be getting sick she seemed fine but now her meow is hoarse and shes been coughing alot other then that she plays and eats and looks ok so im not sure whats going on..i found her last week she looks about 8 weeks at the most shes a small mix breed grey tabby i can see. Can it be serious?? How can i help

My cat meow was getting weaker in the past two days and today she Lost her voice completely , she also sneezes at least 6 times a day and have a diarrhea what can I do

I'm not sure if my cat has laryngitis or not. His meow is very weak and hoarse. He has no other symptoms. He is eating, drinking and using the bathroom. He is about 2 years old. He is an inside/outside cat.

Hello. My cat seems to have lost her voice and gagging a lot. Nothing comes up and she is eating and drinking fine. The lost voice might just be from the gagging and the strain on her vocal cords. But I really don’t know why she is gagging?!?! I took her to the vet and the vet could not feel anything lodged in her throat. I don’t know what to do!!! Help

Obi was recently seen by an ophthalmologist for a strange glare in her eye. The diagnosis was a scar from when she was weeks old due to her now “inactive” herpesvirus.

Yesterday she was fine in the morning. I went out, ran some errands and came home. When I finally settled down and was messing around on the computer I started to hear her breathing. She all of a sudden has come down with the worlds worst congestion I’ve heard in a cat ever. Sometimes she was mouth breathing even. Sometimes she chokes on the mucus and begins to cough, then goes about her life, as cats do. I should mention there is NO discharge from her eyes, and NO discharge from her nose. She is eating here and there. Sometimes she is hungry, sometimes she is not. She is acting normal, running around, using the litter box normally, drinking plenty of water. I checked her temperature and it was 100.2 last night. The humidifier in my room seemed to help last night as wel.

This morning she seemed better. The loud breathing wasn’t so persistent. I thought perhaps it was just allergies. Until she meowed for dinner. Her meow is basically gone. She sounds like a sick child who has lost her voice :( so now I am assuming she had an upper respitory infection caused by the herpesvirus that is not so much inactive as we so thought. I do have 3 other cats and none are showing any symptoms at all. 2 do not have the herpesvirus, and the other one, from Obi’s same litter, does have herpesvirus, but alas, none are showing any symptoms such as Obi.

If this is what I am assuming it to be, what is the normal course of action for treating this kind of thing since it is caused by the herpesvirus? I have never had a cat that had the herpesvirus so this is new territory for me. And I have over 20 years of experience... so I guess I lucked out for over 20 years!

Would it be simply antibiotics? Or is there more to the story because of the herpesvirus?

Thanks ahead of time!!

* I’ve contacted my vet I am waiting on a call back from him

* These symptoms have been going on for 1.5 days

My male cat, Leo has lost his Meow for the past couple of days. We took him to the vet for an examination and a blood test but everything came back fine. He's not coughing, gagging, vomiting or anything like that. No runny nose or sneezing either. He hasn't lost his appetite and is still rather active. Any advice because I'm stumped. The vet has offered further medical tests like an abdominal scan to try and find the cause. Before I agree, I was hoping to see if there was anything else that it could be affecting him.

My male cat, Milo, is about 15 months old now. He hs suddenly lost his meow and looks like he is having difficulty swallowing. He tries to vomit but nothing comes out. He does not have any discharge from eyes or nose. He is eating his can food but not the kibbles.
I had given him Revolution to treat ear mites as prescribed by my vet about 10 days ago. This is the 2nd dose. When i gave him the 1st dose a month ago, he developed Diarrhea as a side effect and lost all his appetite. The vet prescribed Progut Plus and he got better with it.
Now, is this difficulty in speaking and inactivity another side effect of Revolution or should I be concerned?
He is ver vocal otherwise and I am thinking of taking him to vet already.

My cat is normally very vocal she talks all the time but she hasn't in days and when it started to go she got a strained weak meow. Now she doesn't meow at all I thought her collar was to tight so I took it off but she's hid under my bed for days and won't come out she's eating and drinking fine her breathing is fine but she has a slight cough. Is this serious? And will her voice come back?

We recently were fostering 4 kittens and their mama. Well my Luna did not like it and really voiced her opinion about it all. Alot. Now the babies and mama are gone but Luna sounds very horse now. Should I take her to the vet? No other symptoms.

my cat is 4 yrs old. very bad breath, missing teeth, very low voice, runt of the litter Siamese fixed female. I believe I noticed swollen lympth nodes on both sides under her chin. one side larger than the other which I have massaged till nearly gone. sound like something to be concerned about? can I fix the problem or these symptoms?

We just got an 8 week old kitten who was super talkative for the first couple of days. All of a sudden his meow became strained, and now sometimes, when he opens his mouth to meow, no noice is made. He’s been having this issue for a couple of days now. He still is eating and drinking fine, and doesn’t seem to have less energy. All in all, I don’t really see any other symptoms of illness. Do you think it’s cause to make an appointment with our vet?

My cat is 2 years old and indoor and outdoor cat. The past 2 days I realize he’s been sneezing more than usual. This morning I woke up and he’s having trouble standing and won’t make eye contact. He’s moving almost in slow motion and is now hiding under my bed which he never does! He was eating and everything fine about 12 hours ago but it’s a completely different cat this morning! He cries a little when I pick him up.

My cat has issues with his pee being a high pH. We got pretty litter so we can monitor the color (turns dark green when pH is too high). When the issue gets worse it seems like his meow gets weaker and sometimes he even loses his voice. This doesn't seem to be common, but I notice the correlation quite a bit. Any advice?

I am also looking for some recommendations about good long term urinary diets that don't cost an arm and a leg.

I don't know if my cat has laryngitis, or what it is, but one day, she stopped eating and drinking, so my mom took her to the vet. She then was put on antibiotics for a few days. She seems like she is doing better, but her meow sounds raspy like a human that lost their voice and she keeps having coughing fits. She'll sit on the ground with her face close to the ground and it sounds like she's choking or yaking on something.she's also had discharge from her eyes. Can you help?

My cat was diagnosed with feline herpes at 6 weeks old, she has never had a flare up, but yesterday she lost her voice, and she keeps throwing up after she eats. Could this be the feline herpes or does she have a cold?

I have a 7 months old Parisian cat. He is not very vocal usually. But since this morning he has a very harsh and coarky meow.also he is barely eating since yesterday. Breathing seems normal. Eye is a bit runny. He lost his playfulness and quietly sitting in the corner.Please help.

Trying to determine what’s going on with my very senior cat (19.5yrs). He gags when he tries to meow (started yesterday), his meow has disappeared over the past 24 hours, has become more sleepy and lethargic, but is able to walk and go up/down stairs. Has been anorexic all day today. Is able to drink water but has vomited hip anything i have attempted to feed him. He does have hyperthyroidism and is on felimazole 5mg QD, recently diagnosed with hypertension and placed on amlodipine 1/4th of 2.5mg tab QD, and Cerenia 8mg QOD, plus weekly 25mcg SQ injections of Cyanocobalamin. Blood work was done within the past month and all WNL. Recent BP checks were great. He’s slightly more lethargic than normal, sleeping quite hard, gait is mildly unsteady. Respiration’s normal, no eye or nose discharge noted, no cough noted. Abdomen is soft, bowel sounds heard.
Regular vet office is closed until Monday. Not sure if I need to take him into ER or wait until Monday to have him checked out.

My cat, Lola, woke up hoarse. She sounded like she was trying to get rid of a hairball last night, but I didn't find one. However, about 3 days ago the neighbor's sick kitty got out and played with Lola. It has an upper respiratory infection.

My cats meow has become a weak chirp which sounds croaky and is always now frequently choking every now and then, I believe it's because there is something lodged in her throat due to broken little pieces I found on my bed but not quite sure of it, she doesn't eat that often and is very skinny which always has been a problem for her. What do I do for her at 12pm at night?

I have a cat and I left her with a pet hotel service during a month. she was suppossed to stay longer since I am travelling and I came back for a day so I went to see her and the conditions on how she is kept and i noticed her voice is gone.... when she meows barely a sound comes out. the caregiver mentioned she has not been eating much. the problem is i have just recently been told she stopped eating and 10 days ago my friend went to visit my cat and sent me a video where she sounded very hoarse but i thought it was just a one time thing since she did not mention anything either and the caregiver never mentioned anything about a change in her meow. so apparently she has been like this for more then ten days which is terrible. I thought she was in good hands but it seems she was not. I have not noticed any heavy breathing... i do notice her a little down so she might feel week or depressed i am not sure. she is not eating and she starts like vomiting but she doesn't really, ....

Cat is not able to meow like he usually does. It is like a raspy squeak. He is drinking and eating and looks the same. It just started today. He is usually very talkative and meows all the time. What should I do?

Hello. My 13 year old female cat started waking in the mornings unable to meow her usual meow. It was weak and faint sounding, but improved throughout the day. Recently, it has expanded to every day most of the day. The only other symptoms is she vomits often, 2-3 times per week. I've tried her on every type of diet, grain free/gluten free, organic, etc. I took her to the vet when it first started about 8 months ago and they couldn't find anything to explain the weak voice and the vomit. Any ideas?

I came home from a weekend away and noticed my cat is not making any noise when he meows, which is odd because he's usually very vocal. My roommate said he was meowing fine while I was gone. He can purr and hiss, and has made a few hoarse meows but only a few. He also has been acting like he needs to cough up a hairball but nothing is coming out. And he's made a squeaking noise a few times as well that is new to him. He's eating and acting like his normal self.

My Tommy is 8yrs he is finished a course of antibiotics for an upper respiratory tract infection his energy is back as is his appetite but his meow is gone still. He's normally very chirpy and load.Should I be concerned still?

My cat has been on low dose oral clindamycin for several months for her teeth (she too old to undergo anesthesia for cleaning). We moved, her RX was filled by a new pharmacy that decided to compound it in oil and not water. I gave my cat one dose and she reacted violently choking and gagging. It did not go away and within an hour she had also lost her voice. 24 hours later she has gotten no better. She is still eating, drinking, purrs, acts mostly normal but can't talk, gags occasionally, swallows hard, and has like a rattle sound plus I can hear fluid in her body if that makes sense. I haven't given her any more of her med and need to know if she needs steroids or antihistamine at this point to get better. She seems to have discomfort if I touch her throat. I'm very worried because she's 18 and I'm very attached to her and want to make sure I do everything needed asap to help her.

My cat has been gagging nonstop and I noticed earlier today that she puked a big pile of food (she eats dry. The food was also whole) it was wet and there was some liquid. since I noticed her puke she has been gagging and when she meows its as if she lost her voice and its but a mere squeak. I also noticed her back paws are cold, this only concerns me because her sister had cold back paws before she died of a blood clot. this is only the first day that this has been happening and its only been about 2-3 hrs since I have noticed this. also she is an indoor outdoor cat but right now I am keeping her inside.

My cat has recently contracted a uri from a kitten that we saved from the humane society. He has lost his voice and is eating very little and drinking. He appears to look like his throat may be sore. He drinks and then has a gagging reflex. Are there any home remedies that I can try?

Last night around 5 pm my 5 month old kitten's meow suddenly became very raspy. She sounded like a chain smoker--even her purr sounded raspy. Today she sounds a little better. She is capable of making an occasional high pitched noise but most of her meows are still very raspy. She is a very chatty kitty and this has not changed. She is still eating and drinking normally (and I cleaned out her litter box, so it appears everything else is normal) and she is just as hyperactive as she normally is. She hasn't presented any other symptoms. I even looked in her mouth and everything thing looked fine (as far as I could tell in the short glance before she wiggled out of my lap and went back to playing). I've contacted several vets but none could see us except the emergency care. I don't know if I should worry or not

my one year old female cat started having a raspy meow today but no signs of discharge from the eyes or nose. I have heard her sneeze maybe 3 times in the last 2 weeks. She is an indoor cat. Is she sick? I have clavamox from when my 2 month kitten came home with an upper respiratory infection. I have had this kitten for one month now. Did my baby kitten get her sick? what should I do??

My cat Vixen is eating and drinking as usual but has had a raspier meow the last few days and a few moments of light gagging like motions with her mouth she seems a little tired I took her out for a short walk on a leash the other day and am wondering if this could be related and could be something that will go away on its own. What should I look for to know if it is time to bring her to the vet? She is a difficult cat who doesn’t like being manipulated which is why I don’t want to bring her unless needed. She seems a bit colder than usual too. I have 3 cats and she’s always been the most susceptible to having an irritated eye leaking for example, my vet had suspected herpes.
