Hello. It could be bronchitis, feline asthma, a lung infection, heart disease or heart worms. Please have Nova examined as soon as possible by your veterinarian so you can start to resolve this coughing & make her so much more comfortable. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
