It may be that the mass has grown. You really need to take your kitty back to the vet to have her examined and x-rayed to see what is going on in her chest. Respiratory distress is always an emergency to I strongly suggest you take your kitty to a veterinarian today, or to an emergency room. She may need supplemental oxygen and supportive care.
