[quote=Anonymous]My cat started developing this occasional (and then daily) cough a couple months ago. The kind where she's crouched down low, neck stuck out, she lets out this coughing/hacking sound for about 10 seconds and stops. Sometimes it sounds like she's coughing up phloem and re-swallowing it. Anyway, at first I thought it was a hairball and gave her hairball meds, but when it didn't get better took her to the vet. The vet diagnosed her with a tracheal infection and put her on antibiotics. The antibiotics seemed to help, or at least I didn't hear her cough for a while, but now two weeks after finishing the round of treatment she's at it again. Ack! Planning to call the vet again but wondering if there's certain things I should be asking them to test? The vet listened to her lungs last time and said they were clear (apparently ruling out feline asthma). Anyone have a similar experience?[/quote]
