My cat is breathing fast and stressed. How can I calm her at home?

Question

My cat was diagnosed with leukemia a month back but seemed to have made great progress, returning nearly to her normal state. Last week she suffered a blood clot in her one of her legs. Last night she had to be cleaned (which she hates) to wash out the diarrhea in her fur, but she’s been breathing rapidly since. Currently, we can’t afford costly treatments, so what can be done at home to at least calm her down. I’m worried about my baby. :(. Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Female | unspayed | 5 lbs

Poor Meeko! You can get Feliway, which is a pheromone diffuser that releases calming pheromones. You can pair that with a Sentry calming collar. If these things don't work for her, I would speak to a vet about medications that may help. Best of luck.
