I've tried multiple times to download a video, but it keeps telling me my video doesnt have an allowed extension. I have no idea what that means.... The behavior looks just like an asthma attack.
My 9yr old housecat has been doing this for months now. Sometimes the (sneeze?) is so forceful that you hear a whistle, but she just walks away as if nothing happened. I asked this forum for advice a while back and I was directed to a video of a cat with asthma. I immediately took her to the vet who did an x-ray and said she was clear. They couldn't induce the behavior. Her advice was "maybe a seasonable allergy". Well, it's been months now, the season has turned, and she's still doing it. My other two cats are just fine, I've made no changes in food, cleaning products, or anything else. She is able to go outside (in a roofed 6x10 dog kennel through a cat door). I live in a yurt in the Oregon woods and she sees no other cats except her housemates. There are two dogs I share with my ex., but she's been around them for years...
She goes in for her annual in a few weeks and I'm afraid my Vet will either just say "allergy" again, or want to go fishing with blood tests or other tests I can't afford.
Any advice? Or, would it be wrong for me to just let it go on since she doesn't seem to be harmed by it?
Thank you all for any help! Carole
