What you are describing sounds like a potential medical emergency. I would recommend having Alma seen by a veterinarian immediately to see what is going on. We can see lung and heart disease in kittens that require emergency treatment. Good luck! Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
