My cat sounds like throwing up, breathes hard, seems fine. ER vet now?

Thank you for submitting your question regarding Pumpkin. I recommend that you seek emergency veterinary care for her today. If she did eat a piece of string, this can be very serious. It generally requires emergency surgery to remove. A foreign body ingestion does not typically cause sneezing though. She needs a thorough examination and possibly x-rays of her belly. I hope this information helps and she is feeling better soon. I hope this information helps!

Poor Ora! She needs to be examined by a vet as soon as possible to determine the cause and treat. She could have an infection, asthma, heart disease, etc. and your vet can take an x-ray, if needed, to help diagnose and then determine the best treatment plan. IF she is having trouble breathing then you should take her to an emergency clinic tonight so treatment can be started. Hope she feels better soon!

BowBow sounds extremely sick, and it's a medical emergency that she is refusing water and food. It may be she has a pyometra, which is an infection of the uterus that is fatal without treatment. It could also be she got into something toxic. This cannot be treated at home, she has to see a vet now. Please take her into an ER vet clinic; if there isn't one in your area, there will be a vet on call for emergencies. The information to reach that vet is found on a clinic's answering machine or website. Best of luck.

Poor Faith. She could have a severe respiratory infection. Yes, I would definitely take her into the vet, as she sounds quite sick. I'd take her into a vet first thing in the morning. I hope this helps!

Hi there! Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! I definitely understand your concern. Vomiting and inappetence are concerning symptoms as they could occur with things like a gastrointestinal obstruction, pancreatitis, inflammatory bowel disease, dietary indiscretion, among many other possibilities. The fact that he is also breathing fast is also concerning. I recommend that you have Pedrito evaluated by a veterinarian for further assessment and treatment. Hoping for a speedy recovery!

I wouldn't wait until the morning, I'm concerned about her breathing. Any breathing problem is an emergency. Please take her into an ER vet clinic; if there isn't one in your area, there will be a vet on call for emergencies. The information to reach that vet is found on a clinic's answering machine or website.

This is an emergency and you need to take your kitty to a veterinarian or PetER right away. Respiratory distress is very serious and your cat will need a thorough exam, possibly oxygen, and supportive care. He is purring because he is ill and is trying to appease everyone around him. The signs of illness are very unspecific so please take your cat to the ER now.
