From outward appearances, it looks like his lungs are expanding and contracting in a very pronounced way, at about once a second (I don't know what a normal lung expand/contract would be). It seems like he has always had some kind of internal hiccup. Seems like I've seen very slight weird organ movements once in awhile over time, but he was normal acting and seemed great. Now, he looks a little distressed in that the lungs going in and out are a little uncomfortable. And, he is not as active. I am thinking it is not anemia because when he does move around, he does so very easily and without a change in breathing. I'm hesitating about taking him to the vet, because it is a further stress, but I will do so if there is any sign of pain or of this gets worse or continues another day or two. Has anyone seen anything like this before? Loki is almost 10 months old now, and is the last survivor of his siblings, all FeLV+. Steve
