#feline asthma

[stumblngrumbl]

Godfrey has been through a bit recently. He's always had a bit of asthma (though we didn't realize it for a while), and about eight years ago we used a product for carpet cleaning that seriously exacerbated it - truth is, we didn't realize he had asthma then and thought he had bad hairballs that fall, and then he ended up in the hospital with pneumonia.

He pulled through (luckily he was in rude health previously, so being seriously ill and not eating for two weeks didn't kill him), and that's when we learned that he had had asthma all along. We got a "spacer" (called an aerochamber) for giving meds as needed. Luckily someone here had the same prescription for asthma medicine but rarely needed to use it any more 🤭

Well just recently he had a fairly bad asthma attack (possibly caused by the wood stove heater - on closer inspection it appears the gasket is old and it may have been leaking smoky air into the house! - we stopped using it 🥶* for now but we're fixing the wood stove).

We got it handled - he needed some prednisolone to get over the worst of it but no hospitalization; he's still getting "puffed" with the inhaler but he's as bratty as ever showing his rude health again.

It always fascinates me how despite the obvious discomfort cats may have with getting medicine (pills for a couple weeks, the "puff" for the last few weeks), they seem to understand I'm not torturing them for fun and it's actually helping - Godfrey gets much closer to me when these things happen.

also maybe the workday was not so bad like a) one of my coworkers gave me a tarot deck??? 😭😭 and it's so beautiful??? and b) there were two clients who I actually tangibly helped like me myself not the "scheduling an appt" or "waiving a fee" help (tho I did those too) but actually gave helpful advice to...like maybe I am good at my job sometimes

To the vet school thing:

Is it safe to give an 11 pound cat Benadryl for sinuses? If so, what dose?

Call your vet!

I have to give my cat an inhaler for probable asthma, and I thought it would be okay because he doesn't love things near his face but he was tolerating it.

But then as soon as he smells the actual inhaler gas, he starts jerking his head to try to get away. I'm giving him treats afterwards but he's not really very food motivated and I worry that his hatred for this will outpower his love of churus.

But I really wanted to work out because 0.2 mL of liquid steroids every day is not probably a good long-term solution

shelley got a "feline asthma" diagnosis, which just means mashing up a pill into her fish every day. but there was a non zero chance she would have wound up with an Apparatus

Took Ginger to the vet about some reoccurring issues she’s been having and found out that she has asthma. It isn’t very severe and she doesn’t currently need any medication or an inhaler

Kiara Headcanon

This is a headcanon that I came up with a while ago and I know it sounds a bit far fetched but hear me out.

I think Kiara has some form of lung issue.

First off people both within the movie and in the fandom comment on how loud her breathing is. Also she gets out of breath quite easily when trying to hunt (before the fire). Actually, speaking of the fire, this is weird but Kiara is the only TLK character to ever faint as a result of a fire. No other character is ever affected by a fire for more than two seconds not even when Simba is fighting against Scar (and that fire went on for ages) so the fact that Kiara actually fainted as a result of the fire shows that there is clearly something wrong with her lungs to begin with.

So on with the headcanon!!!

So when Kiara was born, she was born with a lung issue that made it difficult for her to breathe. The symptoms of this condition are shortness of breath, difficulty breathing (Which is why she breaths quite heavily) and a tendency to pass out if she overexerts herself. As a result Simba became overprotective over her. Simba is super anxious about Kiara's condition and he often takes her to Rafiki for checkups even when she doesn't need it at the time (Like say they're just vibing in Pride Rock and Kiara just clears her throat or something). He sends Timon and Pumbaa after her to monitor her condition at all times when he can't do that himself. Kiara doesn't want to be pitied or seen as weak because of her illness so she tries to prove herself to her dad and show that she is just as capable as Kion (Simba isn't protective over Kion because he's perfectly healthy). The reason why the cub at the end of the first movie looks different to Kiara is because for a brief moment Simba was considering skipping over Kiara and making Kion the King instead as he was worried about her health. Nala, Sarabi, Sarafina and the rest of the pride disagreed with this decision which caused Simba to change his mind and Kiara had her presentation from the movie weeks later. Also her lion asthma (I ran out of words, okay) is also the reason why she's so bad at hunting. Her heavy breathing makes it difficult for her to be stealthy when tracking animals (Kovu even acknowledges this at one point). Due to the sheer amount of fires this poor girl has been in, Kiara's lung condition actually kind of worsens by the time her first hunt rolls around which is why she was better at hunting in TLG and not TLK2.

And that's the headcanon!

(So I was joking about that whole 'lion asthma' thing but I googled it and apparently there really is a feline asthma that exists, its super rare in lions and only three lions in the world have that condition, so uuuuhhh.... Poor Kiara).

Beloved of Darkness, child of light, a feline spirit soon takes flight. To dance the starry Heavn's sphere, with michief's paw and attentive ear. With felinity's ephemeral grace, the winds of heaven do embrace. Our hearts and souls by grief beguiled, depart in peace, fair Bast's chilld. (Please share your favorite story of Rory)

For most of his life, Rory has been a very physically strong cat - an adaptation he had to pick up in order to survive after his previous owners declawed all four of his paws before abandoning him. So before his illness, his steps just had this immense force behind them. Early on in my relationship with Silas, I learned Rory was an incredibly affectionate animal and that he would often sleep on top of them in bed.

On one of my first nights in Silas’s bed, I woke to this immense pressure and weight on my chest and throat. I started to panic, thinking I was either having my very first night terror or a surprise asthma attack. Once I was awake enough to open my eyes and grab my phone’s flashlight, I discover that the hindrance to my breathing was Rory standing on my chest, purring loudly, while kneading my throat out of affection. It was one of the funniest moments of my entire life.

Thank you for the prayer. It is incredibly beautiful and I am doing my very best not to full volume sob at my work desk.

3 Breathing Danger

vanessa shelly x fem reader

Description: Y/N, is a young coffee-loving woman who likes to work at a local coffee shop in the evenings. Y/N has struggled with asthma since she was a child, and breathing problems can be caused by stress, which certainly doesn't help when a mysterious man starts stalking her. She soon discovers that her best friend, Vanessa, is working with the police to investigate a series of murders at Freddy Fazbear's local pizzeria and believes that Y/N's stalker may be connected.

Warning: This chapter contains descriptions of asthma and its effects, attraction and relationships, adorable cats.

Chapter third: A Bittersweet Parting

The weekend draped itself lazily over Y/N's shoulders, a welcome respite from the bustling weekdays. Nestled in the comfort of her cozy apartment, she relished the simple joy of lounging on her couch, a book in hand, and Maylo nestled comfortably on her stomach. The rhythmic purring of her feline companion created a soothing backdrop to the quiet afternoon.

As she lost herself in the pages of her novel, the gentle rise and fall of her chest matched the tranquil rhythm of the day. However, amidst this idyllic scene, a subtle tightness constricted her chest, a familiar sensation that whispered the onset of a looming asthma episode.

Y/N paused, her fingers halting their gentle strokes on Maylo's fur. The comforting embrace of her home couldn't shield her from the unpredictability of her respiratory condition. The air seemed denser, each breath a bit more labored than the last.

She reached for her inhaler, a trusty companion that offered fleeting reprieve in moments like these. With practiced ease, she administered the medication, the cool mist offering a fleeting sense of relief as it expanded her constricted airways.

Though she had grown accustomed to managing her asthma, there were moments when its sudden onset caught her off guard. She closed her eyes, willing her body to relax, focusing on the steady rhythm of her breathing. Maylo, attuned to her distress, nuzzled closer, offering a comforting presence that eased her tension.

The quietude of her apartment cocooned her in a haven of familiarity, a sanctuary she cherished especially during moments of physical unease. Gradually, the tightness in her chest began to loosen its grip, the inhaler's effects slowly working their magic.

With each passing minute, her breathing steadied, the heaviness in her chest dissipating into the ether. Y/N sighed, the remnants of the episode fading away as she reclined against the soft cushions of the couch.

She resumed petting Maylo, the gentle motion a grounding force amidst the lingering traces of discomfort. The afternoon stretched on, the quietude restored, allowing her to sink back into the comforting embrace of her book and the reassuring presence of her furry companion.

In these moments, she was reminded of the delicate balance between her everyday life and the ever-present specter of her health condition. Despite the occasional interruptions it brought, Y/N found solace in her ability to manage it, finding strength in the familiarity of her home, where she could navigate the ebb and flow of her asthma with quiet determination.

As the afternoon waned and the gentle glow of the setting sun painted the room in warm hues, Y/N closed her book, her chest now at ease and her mind settled. She smiled at Maylo, grateful for the steadfast comfort he provided.

With a contented sigh, she embraced the tranquility of her home once more, reveling in the simple joys that awaited within its familiar walls.

The calm of the afternoon was interrupted by a soft knock at the door, pulling Y/N from her serene cocoon. Maylo, ever the vigilant guardian of the household, perked up at the sound, his tail swishing with anticipation. Y/N, curious yet slightly puzzled, set her book aside and made her way to the door.

As she opened it, she was met with the reassuring sight of Vanessa standing there, a concerned expression softening the lines of her face. Vanessa, in her police uniform, carried an air of authority softened by familiarity. Her presence alone often brought a flutter of emotions to Y/N’s heart, the silent yearning for more moments spent together.

"Hey, Y/N," Vanessa greeted, her voice a gentle melody that danced through the air. "I was nearby and thought I'd check in on you. How are you feeling?"

Y/N's cheeks flushed slightly, a combination of surprise and warmth at Vanessa's unexpected visit. "I'm okay now, thank you. It was just a minor asthma flare-up."

Vanessa's brows furrowed in concern. "Are you sure? Should I come in and make sure you're alright?"

Y/N's heart fluttered at the genuine worry etched across Vanessa's face. "No, no, I'm fine, really. It's passed. Thank you for stopping by, though. It means a lot."

Maylo, seizing the opportunity to greet his favorite visitor, meowed affectionately and wound himself around Vanessa's legs, eliciting a chuckle from both women.

Vanessa crouched down, scratching behind Maylo's ears. "Hey there, buddy. Missed me, huh?"

Y/N couldn't help but smile at the endearing sight. "Looks like Maylo's happy to see you."

Vanessa straightened up, a hint of reluctance in her expression. "I wish I could stay longer, but duty calls. I just wanted to make sure you're okay."

Y/N's heart sank a little at the prospect of Vanessa's imminent departure. "I appreciate it, Vanessa. Thank you for checking in on me."

Their eyes met, a brief but charged moment of connection that lingered in the air, unspoken words hanging between them like unopened letters.

With a sigh, Vanessa nodded. "Take care of yourself, Y/N. I'll swing by again soon, okay?"

Y/N nodded, a mixture of disappointment and understanding tugging at her heartstrings. "I'll be here. Stay safe out there."

Vanessa offered a small smile before turning to leave, Maylo trailing after her for a few steps before darting back inside. Y/N watched her go, the faint echoes of Vanessa's presence lingering in the air even after she was gone.

As she closed the door, Y/N leaned against it, a bittersweet ache settling in her chest. The warmth of Vanessa's concern lingered, a poignant reminder of the feelings she harbored, tucked away in the depths of her heart.

With a wistful sigh, she returned to the comfort of her home, the echo of Vanessa's visit lingering like a cherished melody, warming the quiet corners of her heart.

went to the vet this morning with hoagie. his chest x-rays have been sent out to a specialist to confirm but it looks like it’s feline asthma that we’re dealing with. i’m glad we ruled out the big stuff (cancer, tumor) at least 🩵

[brckensociety]

hey lovelies. so as said before i am going to attempt to get back into things this week. the past month has been.... fucked. i legit got hives on the 3rd of oct, that are still hanging around, just coming and going as they please (i can't investigate the cause unless it lasts beyond 8 weeks, the joys). on top of that, i was getting testing done all month, and once they were done i got a diagnosis on top of two more possible ones i have to look into, ugh. and the cherry on top of a fucked month, my cat had laboured breathing and had to go to the vet two weeks ago, he was diagnosed with feline asthma and a chest infection so had to go on steroids along with an inhaler. ✨the joys✨

i am going to spend a day or so working out if my brain wants to keep current threads or start afresh. i've truly missed you all and all our threads so very much and i truly appreciate all of you for being so patient with me.

[jacksprostate]

i make all these jokes about the narrator being a pitiful sickly creature but really the main pitiful sickly creature in my life is my yucat.... he probably has mild asthma and is always a bit to very snotty due to persistent feline herpes and also he's a huge coward who lets his brother bully him 24/7 and also he is small
