The breathing sound of the kitten is rumbling

The rumbling breathing sound of a kitten mainly indicates the possibility of respiratory diseases, such as upper respiratory infections or lower respiratory infections. In general, respiratory diseases can cause an increase in mucus secretion inside the respiratory tract, further exacerbating the kitten's breathing sound and resulting in a rumbling sound. In this case, it is recommended that the owner take the kitten to a pet hospital in a timely manner for related checks. If not treated promptly, the kitten may be at risk of dying.

1. Upper respiratory infection

Usually, diseases such as herpesvirus, coronavirus, mycoplasma, and chlamydia can easily cause upper respiratory infections in cats. In addition, cats who often get cold may also increase the likelihood of upper respiratory infections. After a cat contracts an upper respiratory infection, symptoms such as nasal discharge, sneezing, coughing, and rapid breathing usually appear. If you notice these symptoms in your cat, be sure to keep the cat warm and take it to a nearby pet hospital for diagnosis and treatment in a timely manner to avoid missing the best treatment opportunity.

1. Lower respiratory infection

Lower respiratory infections in cats are often caused by secondary infections of upper respiratory infections or infections caused by foreign objects such as water entering the lungs. Lower respiratory infections usually cause severe coughing, increased pulmonary respiration, and other abnormal symptoms. This is a dangerous situation that requires immediate treatment at a pet hospital.
