Why not, just why not, take her to the vet???? It's cruel not to get her treated.

Get her to the vet. Today if possible, if not, then watch her very closely tonight and take her tomorrow morning.
It's probably just a few snuffles, my two kittens had the exact same symptoms a month ago and are now fine. If this is the case, it can be really easily cured with some medicine you can put in her food for a week.
But the longer you wait to take her to the vets, the more you'll prolong her suffering - and if it is something more serious, then you'll need to catch it double quick.

Hi paula, bless her she's got a cold! The rattle sound you describe is phlegm on her little chest so she's going to need some antibiotics to clear it up. She's probably had it quite a while but because she's a happy, healthy little girl, its not bothered her too much, still isn't so you mustn't worry too much either! A weeks course of the anti's will clear it up no problem. In the meantime, i'd keep her in for the week, it's getting a bit nippy out there now and her little fur coat isn't quite thick enough yet to offer a lot of protection! I hope she gets better soon.

Ask his vet! Good grief; why are you fiddling and guessing with such a serious condition in an older dog? Sorry, but I can't understand how you can ask an online group this question and why you are waiting. Finding a 10 year old dog unresponsive is reason for an immediate call to the vet 24/7.

It sounds like your kitten has a chest infection. You need to get her off to the vet who will probably give some anti-biotics

I can't believe you have a sick cat and you are sitting on your butt in front of your computer asking a bunch of people who don't know what they're talking about when you could already be at the vet getting meds for your cat.
I guess your cat's biggest problem is that her owner doesn't have a whole lot of common sense.
Think McFly, think.

Hello there,
I dont mean to sound rude, but there is nothing we can do for your cat, we cannot give an accurate diagnosis. It is better to take your cat straight to the vet before things get worse.
Kindest regards,
=^..^=

You need to bring your kitten to a vet. She might have a cold or some kind of allergy.

Animals normally are diagnosed by educated vet doctors of course with payment for medication. You do not expect to get free vet doctor's treatment and antibiotics jab for animal immunity. Who is paying for medicine and vet fees?
Certain places which have no animal clinics will give antibiotics natural food with irons to boost up the animal's immunity like clean milk and from proteins to rebuilt the animal's white blood cells.
Do not shoot dead an animal because animals have white blood cells to recover too. When killing is done, the animal heart stops, white blood cells will die off and viruses will win and when you bury under the sand, the virus will survive with underground water and oxygen because it has a neucleas, neucleas of virus will explode and die above 70 degree celcius proven by microscope.
Avoid shooting animals at night eventhough you are given the power to kill because when you cannot see at night, you might accidently hit an airplane or helicopter or human lifes regardless of skin colour/religion because its dark at night and cloud shades the aircraft. Care for humans and animals with a sincere heart and with white blood cells active recovery will happen with good food for humans, animals and all living creatures on planet earth without high radiation near their living homes
