I'm oldest cat (Scamp) who is almost seven years old has Feline Asthma. I just spent a fortune at the vet. for x-rays and blood work.
Anyway, I just wanted to know if any of your cat's suffer from Asthma and what you do for them.
Thanks

The CFA gives us an excellent article:

http://www.winnfelinehealth.org/health/asthma.html

The care and treatment is similar to that of human beings, keeping the cat away from smoke, etc., and even using an inhaler, as we do. Asthma causes a sudden contraction of the muscles around the airways. The article is much more detailed, of course.

I know some kittys with asthma and they have the crystal kitty litter instead of regular so that there is no dust.
