Has anyone mentioned a transtracheal wash and culture to try to identify the
pathogen? It sounds like an antibiotic-resistant strain of pseudomonas.
Have you tried azithromycin (Zithromax)?
Best of luck,

I have also seen Cryptococcus cause pneumonia in a kitten before.
Whatever it is definitely needs to be cultured to see if it is
culturable.
