What Causes Cat Pneumonia — and How Is It Treated?
Cat pneumonia starts with lung or bronchial inflammation, often triggered by dirty air, low immunity, a foreign body, a cold, allergy, or another disease (parvo, panleukopenia, kidney/heart). Acute cases show sudden fever and breathing trouble; chronic shows lasting cough and low appetite. Treatment is culture-guided antibiotics plus cough relief and fluids, with prevention focused on a clean, dry environment.

Kitten suddenly vomiting, low spirits, throws up even after eating cat strips—what to do?
Vomiting may come from hairballs, internal parasites, gastroenteritis, pancreatitis or panleukopenia. If otherwise normal with hair in vomit, try hairball paste. If no improvement, withhold food and water half a day, then give pet anti-inflammatory and an anti-vomit drug; after relief feed small frequent bland meals with probiotics. If still poor and unvaccinated, see a vet.
Cat dry heaving, squatting, head forward twitching, cough-like sound, low spirits—two of three cats affected
Dry heaving has many causes: acute gastroenteritis, bacterial enteritis, gas or indigestion; upper respiratory infection or allergens with throat phlegm; hairballs or foreign bodies blocking gut/esophagus; or contagious diseases like panleukopenia, FIP or rhinotracheitis. Have a vet examine the cats to find the cause before treatment.

Which Cat Breeds Tend to Live the Longest?
Some cats are naturally long-lived — Chinese Li Hua, Chartreux, Norwegian Forest Cat, American Shorthair, Balinese, and Siamese often reach 15–20 years. Pair good genes with vaccines, deworming, spaying/neutering, grooming, dental care, exercise, checkups, and quality food to extend your cat's life.
Cat vomits yellow fluid 2-3 days after spay; ate a bit when home, now drinks, won’t eat; normal stool, sleeps sprawled, vomited yellow many times.
Post-spay yellow vomit is usually anesthesia, recovering in 12-24h with cimetidine and probiotics. If still frequent at 2-3 days, low post-op immunity irritates gut - fast, hospital fluids for anesthetic metabolism and anti-emetic/anti-inflammatory. Also rule out post-spay panleukopenia.
