Expert Answer
A cat with low energy and heavy breathing can be caused by many reasons, such as respiratory disease, infectious disease, congenital hereditary disease, or parasite infection; the cause cannot be determined from a single symptom. In addition, young kittens have weaker constitutions and the symptoms may come from getting chilled after rain or a bath, but this depends on the cat’s medical history.
We suggest taking the cat to a nearby veterinary hospital for examination to determine the specific situation before targeted treatment.
