How To Alleviate Rapid Breathing In Cats

If your cat is experiencing dyspnea, or respiratory distress, they are struggling with either exhaling or inhaling, and sometimes even both. Your cat may have their mouth open gasping for air, or they may be coughing or loudly panting. It can very disturbing to see your feline friend struggling, and while you may be tempted to do something immediately to help them, it is pertinent to get your kitty to the vet as soon as possible. The rapid breathing is not a disease or disorder by itself, but rather a symptom of some underlying problem or illness. It could be benign, or it could be deadly. If your pal cannot breathe, they need medical help right away.
