Well the gasping seems almost gone again. David is home now and Tommy was his usual excited/elated self when he walked in the door. He's still licking his nose/lips fairly frequently, but the gasping is what alarmed me the most and that seems gone now.
I'm going to keep him quiet and keep watching him for now. He's drinking normally so I know he's in no danger of dehydration or anything. He hasn't had any vomiting and he doesn't have a temperature.
Thanks so much for keeping him in your thoughts. It's always so distressing when something is wrong with one of them. I worry myself to exhaustion.

I just about died when I was reading this! :eek:
Poor Tommy! I'm glad to hear he's feeling better...don't scare us like that, boy! {{HUGS}}
-
I am glad that he is feeling a bit better. Thank you for keeping us updated.
Give Tommy extra hugs from us all.
-
Sorry I just now saw this. Hope Tommy is doing ok now. I would have been very scared.
-
Well just one last update unless things change. He seems totally ok now. Even the licking has stopped. He just seems tired now. I think I know how he feels in that regard.
I truly appreciate everyone's concern, support and reassurance. I was really a wreck, so worried. I stuttered and stammered on the phone with the vet like an idiot :p.
I'm just so glad he's ok.

Oh my God, Jessica:( I nearly had a heart attack when I read your post:( What a frightening experience. Thank goodness he's doing much better now. PLEASE, keep us updated when you're able. And please give Tommy a big hug for me. I cried when I read how he was acting. {{{HUGS}}} Love, Sandra

What a relief! I am so glad Tommy is doing better. Hugs to him and his mommy.

If it was an allergic reation to a sting, expect him to be very tired. There's nothing more exhausting than having your immune system go on full alert, then beating it back down. I sleep for hours aftr that sort of episode.
-
Glad to hear he's doing better :)
-
Oh dear! I just saw this.
What a scare. Tommy, don't ever do that again!
I'm glad he's doing better now, and hope it stays that way!
Give him a hug from me and my two. :D
(don't forget to give my Tasha girl one too. :p )

Tommy was doing ok, sleeping peacefully, until about 30 minutes ago. He started gagging and gasping again, but not as severe as earlier, and then it seems to stop for awhile and then start up again for a couple minutes.
David is wondering if he could have asthma.. we have heard him breathe a bit funny before but it always only lasted a few seconds and didn't happen often. I mentioned the reddish spot on his gum but he pointed out that could be a little scrape from chewing/carrying those big logs around too.
I am going to call the vet again tomorrow.

Poor Tommy!!!
I hope you start feeling better asap!!
Praying that he has a good nite.
-
Oh poor Tommy!! I would be worried sick too! I hope everything is ok with him!
-
Oh Tommy:( I know you're anxious to get him to the vet Jess. Please let us know what she/he says you get back. The symptoms are so mystifiying:confused: My kitty Mr. B has asthma but the sypmtoms are not the same; probably not the same in doggies. Prayers, hugs and positive thoughts being sent your way dear Tommy.

Jessica, I am so sorry that I am just seeing this. Please keep us posted on Tommy's condition. I do hope that whatever it is will be gone quickly and he will be back to normal!! He (and you) will be in our prayers.
