Aw, poor thing. When she is sniffling I cringed, I know what it's like feeling stuffed up. And seeing her enjoying the treatment reminded me of the relief I feel when I hold my face over a steaming pot of water with a towel over my head.
Yeah
This is the same principle as the hot water, but those mucus breaking medications can be life savers (I got asthma, I know)
My mum used to sit me in the bathroom with a book and turn the shower on scalding hot.
for me, i use altoid mints when my nose is stuffed, it works great

I had to do this for a cat I rescued that the worst herpes I have ever seen a cat have. There were times when I would have to syringe feed her because she had so much mucous that she couldn't smell and wouldn't eat for days. She was older when I found her and I was able to have her for 2 years before cancer took her.She was a lot of work but I miss her.
I didn't know cats could even get herpes. Poor thing. Well, she's pain free now. Sorry for your loss
@Sonia zzstu ReganRoy same!
@@mysticdiamond8944 I’m pretty sure most do ( it’s a respiratory problem for cats instead of what humans get ) but some cats get flare ups aka they have bad symptoms
It was debate on other videos and people are misinformed or have misconception of '' herpes '' for cats. People should be aware bof coryza because it serious, can be contagious to other animals and deadly within a week or two if not treated. Herpesvirus
Feline herpesvirus type 1 (FHV-1) accounts for 40% of coryza cases. It is the causative agent of potentially severe infectious feline viral rhinotracheitis. In fact, its tropism for the upper respiratory tract (ocular and nasal conjunctiva, oropharynx, trachea), the bronchi, bronchioles and neurons makes it a potentially dangerous virus, since it can cause encephalitis and pneumonia.
Like many herpesviruses, it can remain in a latent state in neuronal ganglia, especially the trigeminal ganglion, in which case it is undetectable. All it takes to reactivate it is a drop in immunity, corticosteroid administration, stress or another disease, leading to infection and viral shedding. It is highly contagious and is transmitted through close direct contact, for example between a mother and her kitten.
Thank you so much for making this video! As a licensed vet nurse, these videos are very helpful to my clients!
Thanks for all that you do! I'm glad that the videos are helpful for your clients!
I have to do a nebulizer too! It was so cool to know that Svetlana and I are in the same boat!
@My Name yes @Kitten Lady……I‘m also from Germany and heard people at my local shelter talking about you………I was so surprised…………you have such an impact on the cat world 👍🤩………thank you so much for all you do - also for all other animals 🥰❤️
She funny cat and cute LOL
Is it safe to nebulize a cat three times a day
If someone told me kitten lady was a registered kitten nurse I'd believe them
Same. Aw that would be a nice job
RN(K) XD
Would that not be a veterinarian nurse or something similar?
Kitten: *snores*
My heart: *bursts*
I gave a nebulizer treatment to my rat when I had them. She had pneumonia twice and the treatment saved her life
hello, fellow rat owner here! my rats are constantly getting upper respiratory infections... so i’m curious, did you use medication prescribed by a vet plus saline or just the saline solution?
@@funkyshook would like to know the answer to this!
@@funkyshook
I have owned and medicated rats for years.
My go to nebulizing cocktail is 0.5 mg albuterol, 0.5 gentamicin, and 5.0 saline.
They will also need a round of oral antibiotics and I have found doxycycline and Baytril (enrofloxacin) or doxy and azithromycin (a z pack) if no improvement within 5 days to save many babies. Even one’s that doesn’t seem like they are going to make it. Consistency is key.
After all that being said I have worked very closely with my trusted exotic vet for years to get these meds/ and dosages.
Rats are the best ❤️❤️
I wish my vet would have recommended something like this for my cat when she had a bad respiratory infection. I would bring her into my bathroom when showering which helped.
I did the shower thing too and it became a bonding thing so my cat would come running whenever I went in the bathroom, even if I was just peeing.
Yes! My vet recommended the shower thing when my cat Taques was a kitten, and now... six years later... He always comes to the bathroom with us whenever we shower.
It actually does very similar things to the straight saline nebulizer. It’s a good substitute in a pinch.
@@personneici2595 funnily enough, my cats even loved being nearby when I was in our hot tub growing up. We had a wine barrel spa, with about a 1” rim. Our cat, Fudge, would walk around that rim to get to folks on the other side for pets.
My cat loves being in the bathroom with me while showering. I think the warmth and the steam calms her down or something, lol.
Awwwe, poor baby girl. Hearing her all sniffy like that reminded me of when my kids would get a cold.
Nobody:
Kitten: *t a s t y a i r*
Awwww I love her I hope she gets better soon!!
As a good barbarian when I face stuck breezin and/or crusty nose I put few drop of pure glycerin in the nose. For super noisy breezing I first give 1 drop of eye wash to help liquefy. The the drop of glycerin. Hold the head up few seconds and prepare for the sneezy booger storm.
Sometimes the first booger drop down on its own. Usually there is 2-3 big sneeze with matching wetty booger. But the best result are when it turn into a sneeze storm and the half hard boogers get dumped out sometime half stuck in the nose and you have to help wipe them out with TP.
It's absolutely disgusting but the noise/weezing free breathing you get afterward is awesome.
I have more and more the feeling to be stuck with the feline equivalent of a leper colony...
Me to
@@G_de_Coligny what can I do to help this 2 feral cats they are like that because it’s so cold even I left the garage open but they don’t want to stay I made them a plastic box with blankets but they run to the rooftop across and the only come when I feed them but they leave only I try to close the garage door to keep them inside and they were crying but they sound they can’t breathe but maybe I can grab one of them sorry can’t taken them to the veterinarian thank you
Awwwwww so glad she’s getting the love and care she needs. Couldn’t have wound up in better hands.
aww that poor girl. My cat has to be stuffed into a cat carrier covered in a towel with the nebulizer humming away. cute little baby cat you got there
Why does your cat need this? I’m wondering if it’s what my girl needs.
@@bippy201 it all depends on the cat and what could be the issue. Personally I'd talk to a vet about it. Ot can be a number of reasons why you would need to do this. Could be anything from slight allergies to asthma to something else. I'd talk to a vet first though
Watching a sweet kitten get a nebulizer treatment while i'm doing my own nebulizer treatment😂
i feel you, sweet baby!
Right there with you, Abigail! On a couple of really bad asthma days, our asthmatic kitty and I shared some mist from my nebulizer. Fortunately, for our kitty, her asthma is much milder than mine so she doesn't need an inhaler.
@@abbynormal4740 one question,is the nebulizer supposed to be hot steam or just cold steam?
@@bigfrankentertainment My nebulizers generate a fine mist at room temperature from nebulizer solutions - levalbuterol (a stereo isomer of Albuterol) and Atrovent. I use an adult mask instead of a mouthpiece. 🙂
Update: I also recently got an AeroKat chamber, which is essentially like a spacer used with human inhalers, but with an adapter to fit over a cat's muzzle. It has a "Flow-Vu" vent to help ensure kitty is adequately taking in an appropriate number of breaths of meditation from the chamber. The AeroKat is easier and quicker to set up and use than a nebulizer, but it's a good idea to gradually accustom your cat to it before using it.
Oh my, This made my day. No word of a lie she looks like an exact replica of my current Cat Tiger. Down to the coloration of her right back paw. I never got to see her as a kitten, as I adopted her off the streets. But now I know...Thanks....
That’s cute lol
how sweet is that ! i adopted my cats when they were kittens but both of my dogs were fully grown when i adopted them.. i always wonder what they would have looked/been like a little puppies :)
Now you know what?
You’re a time traveler.
As someone with Asthma, I tried a nebulizer treatment for the first time a little while ago and ended up feeling kind of high. I made my dad laugh because I took a deep breath, that ended up feeling way deeper than my normal, and asked him if that is how people with full lung function feel. It was incredible.
Must be nice, my lungs are permanently hecked up so even this treatment doesnt let me take a nice deep breath :)) Im so happy it works for you tho!!
How could you not go "Oooooh, awww bess you, bess you. That was a big sneeze❤" every single time she sneezed?
Such a throwback to getting my asthma treatments as a kid...
She looks like a baby version of my 9 month old 💜 I have her now for 3 months 🥰
Awwwww she's soo cute she's a calico I love calicos yet sometimes there very moody
I love Svetlana! Her markings on her body are almost exactly the same as my Pipsi! Even the orange band on her back leg! I hope she feels better soon! 💖🐈🐾
I love that you strike the balance between 'info for professionals', 'info for public' and 'entertainment fo cat lovers'. I'm never going to nebulise a kitten but I still love watching how it's done! :)
OMG her little snores, I can't handle how cute she is ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Poor snarfly baby. Hannah will have you fixed up in no time.
I love the orange spot on her forehead. 💕
Love how she put her paw over it. Hope she gets better soon.
I’ve got quite severe asthma and can confirm that nebuliser treatment is awesome, as is acetylcysteine. I bet Svetlana feels a LOT better after her treatment. It feels like the breath of life when you’re having a hard time breathing.
Here with my own nebulizer mask on due to chest congestion (not Corvid) empathizing with kitty. I feel you kitty.
You can tell she knows it's helping her 💗
I can NOT get over her face!! She is too cute 😩 hope she’s feeling better soon!
I had to have many nebulizer treatments as a child. Nice to know they can be used for kitties as well!
A stray kitten had pneumonia 3 years ago. We saved a kitten life because you mentioned about nebulizer in one of your vid. She's a very healthy cat now. Thank you so much Hannah!
Omg I’m so early, what you do is so amazing you are such an inspiration to me, I just got accepted to foster kittens and I am so excited, and why did I sign up to foster kittens you might ask... because of you and how happy it makes me when you see a kitten you take care of go to it’s forever home 🥺
I hope you feel better soon sweetie.
Poor little sweetheart! I have a nebulizer! It works when nothing else will. She’ll feel better soon. Sending virtual hugs and kisses!!
My cat has feline herpes, and he also has a very poor immune system so he sneezes ALL THE TIME, and he has been like this since he was a newborn. We have tried dozens of medications (as prescribed by his vet) but I'm definitely going to suggest this to his vet to see if it is a viable option for him!
Have you tried Viralys? My cat with herpes improved with this! It’s a gel and she actually loves to get it
@@mynameisnonofyourconcern8685 I will ask the vet about it! Haven't tried it.
@@mynameisnonofyourconcern8685 I give my kitten viralys. Its L lysine he has calici virus. It helps his condition alot.
@@Jack-B0t yeah it’s an immune system supplement and my cat at least has gotten better. You’ll probably have to do something like what was done in the video too if your cat has bad flare ups but it helped curb my cats infections and her herpes
@@mr.scoggins that’s cool! I figured that it would help other things than feline herpes since it helps with the immune system. Does your cat like to get it too or is mine weird lol we get the maple flavor gel
When you said acetylcysteine I went and checked my medication for Sinus Infection. I am also taking Acetylcysteine orally to get rid of mucus too. Feel better soon Svetlana!
Get well soon little one🤗😊 Those tiny toe beans....too cute!
Aw, precious baby! Get well soon.
You are a God Send Kitten Lady !!! Advice and instruction can go a long, long way helping people maintain a pet's health.
I wish vets in general didn't scoff at home treatments and remedies while charging as much or more than human doctors for drugs and 15 minutes of their time in an office.
My pre-1950's old-school farmer neighbors had notebooks, hand-me-down knowledge, recipes and shelves of simple items like home brewed vinegars, wines, oils, mineral powders, herbs and feed mixes that have been replaced by pharmaceutical wanna-be's.
Svetlana is absolutely precious.
Beautiful calico! She looks a lot like my girl Lilo💕
Wow I didn’t know they made nebs that small!! I’m Definitely going to go buy one! I have really bad asthma and have always had the giant Loud clunky neb with the Long tube and mask.👍
What a sweetheart. She's so lucky that you're there to get her all better.
Me: So.. is it like an inhaler?
Hannah: (lightly)sprays kitten's face
Me: oh
Human nebulizers are kinda like inhalers, you can get things like albuterol to put in them and they can get the meds deeper into your lungs! Of course that's only for humans, I wouldn't think you would use human asthma meds for animals, always consult a vet, and for human stuff talk to your doctor!
She’s not actually spraying her; the vapor is floating out naturally. She’s just putting the nebulizer near her nose and mouth for better effectiveness.
@@timberwerewolf I have an asthmatic cat, and you actually do use the same meds as humans! The inhalers are given using a little mask, much like with human infants (look up Aerokat for pics). My old cat takes a daily inhaler and has a rescue inhaler for emergencies, just like humans do.
@@grace7807 This is what I was gonna say! I have an aerokat for my baby. She just has a rescue inhaler right now, and has finally gotten used to me giving it to her! lol. She uses the same exact inhaler I use.
Lol same
She sounded and looked so much clearer after the treatment! Poor baby! I’m glad she got hooked up with such a savvy pet mom!
My two rescue babies (now about 4-5 months old) are curled up like a yin-yang on the floor nearby, listening along.
Feel better soon precious kitten.
Poor baby!! My cat had the same issue a while back and I could have used one of these.
Sick Kitten meets Kitten Lady = Luckiest Kitten in the World ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
Awww she so cute I hope she will get better and continue to ❤️
Yes! Great video! So helpful! I hope stevlana feels better!
Smart move putting her into the box after she used the nebulizer for a bit so there was a barrier between you and the snot!
Get better soon 🙏🙏🙏
Svetlana is adorable!
She is so precious. I hope she's feeling better❣
Oh my gosh im dying the way she was trying to get it with her paw and then trying to eat it soooooooo cute
Your foster owns a very beautiful Russian name, Svetlana. It is even more beautiful when you know its meaning: "Svet" means "light" in Russian, so Svetlana means "The one who shines", "the one who brings light", etc.
I don't know how kitten sneezes can be both adorable and terrifying at the same time??
You are a beautiful human being! Anyone who would take in a kitty to help them is a TRUE hero. Thank you so mutch for helping these kittens you are a true lifesaver.
i just bought a nebulizer for my sneezy senior cat since the vet recommended 10 sessions, your tutorial is very helpful
I hope your beautiful kitten get well soon!
Ahhh she is adorable ty for the video. She has the very best foster mom 🌻
On a Spoonful of Ragdolls, Audrey, as a cat, got to use full nose and mouth mask but held away so the sides were open. The vet recommended it. After her first treatment, she sneezed about 6 times and felt better. Her cold was gone in a couple of days.
Oh her markings are beautiful!
First, I love this channel 😊 I foster kittens to with the help of your channel
I'm sure you know what it feels when you've "bonded" with an animal, like you just click with it. This little lady has stole my heart for the first time in about 10 years. If I didn't have 3 cats already (One who is my little bonded buddy), I would adopt this baby in a second. Idk what it is, she just "has it"!
Wow that kitten is an angel
She is very sweet indeed.
This was very informative! Almost all of your videos give me so much information! I hope to foster when I get older 😊
Get better soon. Love you. ❤
Honestly, she is the cutest kitten you've ever had!! 🐾💞😻😽 really great you're always thinking of all the ways to make us better caregivers
Awww what a sweetheart she is! I hope she feels better soon!
I hope she gets better!
This video is such great timing. My asthmatic cat also just finished a run of antibiotics for a URI but has a slight lingering sneeze. I might give a nebulizer a go to see if it helps her.
Your nebulizer is so dainty and cute. I have a nebulizer for my horse. I put his nose and mouth into a smaller bucket and attach to halter. After he doesn’t have a problem with that, them we attach hose from machine that we put. Mixture in, then turn it on. Everybody who uses it is perfectly having to hang out and breath. Especially when then a carrot or apple comes after.
What a doll baby and she is such a good patient! What a cutie!
This is so helpful, thank you!
Also Svetlana is adorable 💜
Although this is really sad...that sneeze was cute.
shes such a beautiful kitten i lover her very much
Sneezy kitten is adorable. I love her face color markings. So pretty!
She is so adorable!
I have a buster ICU cage for my cats. I bought it primarily for my cat that had severe heart disease in case we were in an emergency situation where he needed oxygen. Sadly, we lost him in November of 2020. :(
It can also be used for nebulizing treatments as well. It's pricey at about $300 for the medium sized ICU cage, but if you're caring for cats of any age that have any kind of chronic issues, it's a righteous investment.
Poor baby! I hope she feels better soon!
The way you care for your kittens warms my heart. ❤️
Kitty no sneeze! It's so cute, it'll blow the world into pieces!!!!!!
Svetlana is definitely my spirit animal. Hope she feels better soon!
Thank you KittenLady for all you do for kitty cats. 💌
What a beauty she is! Lost my gorgeous boy two weeks ago and torturing myself with 'kitty' videos! His mummy is still looking for him 💔. She watches the vidoes of kitties crying with me. Great grieving process for both of us. 🙂 x, You are a great credit to our cat loving community. 💗x
Awww I'm sorry for both your loss. Many prayers and hugs coming your way! 🤗♥😺
@@AmandaPaige71 Thank you so much for your kindness. It means so much to me. I rescued them both and she keeps sleeping in his bed to 'catch' his 'smell'. 💗x
@@deltadawn7421 aww I'm crying myself now. That poor mama kitty! Animals grieve just like humans do and I'm glad you have each other to get through this sad loss of her baby together. They have a way of rescuing us too don't they?
🤗💙🤗
@@AmandaPaige71 They do rescue us. What a lovely human being you are. Bless you. 💕xx
nooo!!! Sending big virtual hugs ❤️❤️❤️❤️
She is so adorable!!! Thank you for everything you do!💜💜
I LOVE YOUR VIDEO'S ABOUT KITTENS YOU MAKE THE BEST VIDS! IM A CAT LOVER I CRY WHEN MY CAT IS NOT HERE HE'S MISSING. NICE MEETING YOU KITTEN LADY!😸😸😸😸❤🐈🐱🐱🐱🐈
She is gorgeous!!! My Bogey had an upper respiratory infection when I adopted him from a shelter a couple of years ago - sneezed 10+ times at a time. Vet gave me meds, but no nebulizer, and he was fine after a couple of weeks. He is my snuggle bug now. 💕
Little Sveta is so cute!
She's A.DOR.A.BLE. and I hope she gets better soon!!! 😻😻😻
She's the cutest kitty ever 🥰😍
It is wonderful to know that nebulizer can be used at home!! As someone who needs to go to hospital for treatment during severe asthma attacks, being able to avoid the hospital will be a relief
Why do you have to go to the hospital to take treatments? That would be so difficult and inconvenient! I take them every other day at home.
She's so cute. I hope she recovers soon ❤️
Svetlana is enjoying her clouds. 🥰
Never used a nebulizer on kittens! Such a smart way to give them medication for upper respiratory infection 😍
I had a guinea pig with URI, and I put her on a a nebuliser too. Worked great!
My mom and I found a kitten a little over a year ago and she has mucus build up, it doesn't sound as bad as it did when we first found her. Even the vet trip didn't help with it. Now I can ask my vet about this method. Thanks for the helpful video, I never thought of a nebulizer or breathing treatment.
Little Svetlana is totally adorable! Please keep us updated on how she is doing.
