    Kennel <u><b>cough</b></u> is a very common respiratory illness that is 
typically found in dogs. However it is possible that your cat could 
develop this illness. While it is rare, there are times when a cat can 
be exposed to and develop this disease. This disease does have a medical
 name and it is infectious tracheobronchitis.<br>
<br>
This disease attacks the 
upper respiratory tracts of dogs, cats, pigs, squirrels, and even 
humans. While this particular sickness is not known for being deadly, 
when left untreated it can lead to more serious issues as well as death.
 In the feline this disease is much more serious than in a dog. Lets 
take a few moments to discuss the severity of this issue as well as some
 of the signs to look for if you fear that your cat might have this 
illness.<br>
<br>
The most common symptom of the disease is a hard, hacking
 cough. This cough can be very distracting and can present itself as 
choking. Another common symptom of kennel <b><u>cough</u></b> is a discharge from the 
nose and eyes. In felines it is not uncommon for the animal to run a 
slight fever.<br>

While a dog will not typically lose its appetite, a cat is
 much different. Feline kennel cough is known to keep the animal from 
eating. If you notice any of these signs in your cat you might need to 
check closer for the presence of kennel <u><b>cough</b></u>. Cats have a very 
different immune system than dogs and this disease, while not harmful to
 most dogs, can be a very serious issue for your cat.<br>
<br>
When it 
comes to feline <u><b>kennel cough</b></u> it is always best to seek the help of a 
medical professional. However if you are determined to treat the animal 
at home and are looking for a few ideas as to the best way to treat, 
always remember that your cat needs to be properly hydrated.<br>
<br>
This might 
sound odd but many people will fail to remember that the cat needs to 
drink plenty of fluids. Always make sure that your feline friend has as 
much water as it needs. Antibiotics are the best treatment for your cat 
but if you do not have any antibiotics then the next best option is to 
use natural supplements. One of the most common natural cures is raw 
honey.<br>
<br>
Another great option for treating kennel in cats is a humidifier.
 Not only will this help the animal breath more freely, it will also 
help reduce the amount of coughing that the animal does. When the 
coughing is reduced it reduces the inflammation in the throat.<br>
<br>
This
 is a serious disease that needs to be handled as such. While the 
average cat will not develop the symptoms of this disease, most cats are
 carriers of the disease. This means that you need to be vigilant about 
keeping your animal healthy. Always maintain a clean environment and 
make sure that your animal has a consistent temperature to lice in. 
Cooler temperatures can lead to a higher chance of contracting kennel 
<b><u>cough</u></b>.<br>
