    Font - I've seen a lot of posts recently if cats with asthma and people asking about it. Here's one of the ways a cat is given asthma medicine. I'm using an AeroKat chamber and am placing a treat in there for her to smell. I'll try to post a video of her having an asthma attack as well.

    Font - +1 - 12 hr. ago I see plenty of cats and dogs that clearly know you are helping them. I've seen asthmatics and diabetics seek out their humans when they feel their treatment is needed. Pets are amazing Nitasha521 1.4k Reply Share
