Oh Liz, I'm so sorry to hear that your Mama Kitty isn't feeling well. I hope it's nothing serious and I hope you'll be able to get her into the box. Uhh, I know how difficult that can be.

The breathing problem doesn't sound good at all - could it be her lungs?

I'll send lots of good thoughts that the vet will be able to help and she can get back to normal.

((((hugs))))
