Many people confuse difficulty breathing with choking. Before administering any first aid, make absolutely certain your pet is actually choking. If your pet is not really choking, the Heimlich can cause serious injury. If you witness your pet ingesting an item and then doing any of the following, only then should the Heimlich maneuver be considered.
The first rule is not to panic in any emergency with your cat. If an emergency occurs, you can be prepared by following these guidelines.
Be very careful when approaching an injured animal. Knowing signs of aggression can help prevent personal injury.
As much as we try to protect our pets, accidents do happen, so it is important to be as prepared as reasonably possible. Learning how to do CPR can help save your cat's life.
