You might want to take him in just to be sure he doesn't have fluid in his chest. I say that because I have just gone through this with one of our FIV+ kitties. When I came home from work on Wednesday, my soul-kitty Wheezie was waiting for me having a very hard time breathing. I rushed him to the e-vet and they pulled 140cc's of fluid off his chest... that is what saved his life. We are now dealing with heart disease... but he pulled through because we took him to have the fluid removed. We are told the prognosis is poor... but our Wheezie has beaten the odds more than once... so we're hopeful. Just wanted to share in case it helps with your baby...
My soul kitty Missy has heart problems too. I don't know if you are on the feline heart yahoo group but they are very helpful. Also if you are able to take Wheezie to a feline cardiologist they have more knowledge than regular vets....I will be thinking of you and Wheezie...
