My cat miscarried and has rapid breathing. What should I do?

Question

My 11 month old cat had a miscarriage two days ago. I took her to our vets office that day but they said that I had to pay up front for the exam and x-rays. So I had to just take her back home. Now for about the last day and a half she has had very rapid breathing. I'm not sure what I can do to tell what is going on with her. Please help!

Rapid breathing is very concerning that she is having life-threatening complications. They can get a severe infection and/or lose a lot of blood when they miscarry. These are likely reasons for the rapid breathing, which indicates that she cannot get adequate oxygen in her body. I know vets can be expensive, but she really needs emergency treatment to keep her from suffering. You may be able to get Care Credit or some other form of credit at the Vet's Office if money is a concern. You may also try to contact a local animal shelter to see if they can offer any help. I'm really sorry to hear about this and hope she can get to the vet soon.
