Hello, cat got into the attic spent time sleeping near insulation...after being lethargic for 1 day he now has cough and sneezing? I rushed him to vet they did blood work and said all is ok and couldn't offer a diagnosis..!? I read in this forum about lung irritation after similar exposure...Should I take him in for X-rays? Thanks in advance! Yasmin Marinaro

Hi Yasmin, thank you for contacting PetCoach with your question about your kitty. Poor guy! Some types of insulation, such as fiberglass, can be irritating to the respiratory system and cause problems. If he is having symptoms such as a cough and sneezing, I do think it's worth getting him checked out again by a vet, and that may include x-rays. I hope this helps!
