I think you must realize that not being able to breathe properly is very frightening & very grave. It is very very hard on her to not be able to breathe! Please take her to the vet or the ER & let her go. She is so ill & has deteriorated so far that trying to treat her any further is only extending her suffering. Do not wait for her to "slip away on her own" as it is dooming her to only more suffering. If the vet won't come to you, then please take her in now.

I've been searching the web for info on respiratory distress, but can't seem to find what i'm looking for. Kisa's breathing is very rapid and deep, and she has her mouth slightly open most of the time. I can't decide if I should take her in to be put to sleep. I am just wondering if anyone has experience with this, and how long will an animal last in this sort of condition? I am sure she isn't feeling very well at all, but I don't know if she is in pain, or just some discomfort. If this is going to go on for days, I should probably put her to sleep. How will an animal die if the respiratory distress keeps getting worse? Will it be a painful ending, or just a cessation of breathing eventually? Thanks for any input. Cassandra
