My senior cat has CHF and breathing issues. What other treatments?

Question

My 14 year old cat has congestive heart failure and hyperthyroidism. She has had her chest tapped twice int he last 2 months taking a significant amount of fluid out. 325ml from left lung and 85ml from right the first and slightly less the second time. The color the first time was like strawberry milk and the second time had an almond milky color. She is having trouble breathing again. Is there anything I can do aside from the Lasik and Propranolol? Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Female | spayed | 14 years and 11 months old | 7 lbs

I am sorry Snow is having this issue. You can contact your vet to see if any adjustments can be made to the current medications as far as dosing is concerned but short of that, no, there really isn't anything else you can do. It sounds like she is being treated appropriately. Best wishes.
