Cat breathing loud, smells off
My adult cat has been breathing loudly out of her nose and she smells
funny. I don't know how else to describe it. She also is losing weight. I brought home a kitten about 4 months ago and for the most part they get along these days. I think the weight loss is related to the kitten being a fat little tiger and not sharing as well he should. I've started a controlled feeding plan which seems to be working. But I'm still concerned about the loud breathing and smell. I've had her for 2+ years and not until the last month have I noticed a smell, nor have I noticed the breathing thing. She doesn't breathe that way all the time. It usually starts at night. Any thoughts? Thanks! J

I might guess at dental problems & sore teeth means she's eating less. But whatever the cause, unplanned weight loss always warrants a vet appointment as soon as possible.

Any time you notice a change in your cat's behavior, physical weight, appetite or anything else unusual, a vet checkup is in order.

I mean, what is your second impulse, since it appears that your first was to post about the problem to a Usenet group?
